On Monday May 3, 2010 a teacher by the name of loses his temper in class in front of all his students and threw a book at a 16yr old sohpmore student and hit him on his leg. I am that student's perent and I am outraged that school officials would allow this to happen. I have had several meetings with school officials about this incident but it seems as though nothing is being done about it. I can't see how school officials would punish a student if this happened the other way around but will let a teacher get away with it!!!! I have tried everything I know of to get to the bottom of this but I'm getting no answers. I feel like this was assault on my child and the school is just letting the teacher get away with it. I'm asking WBTV to please investigate this matter so that this or something worse won't happen to another student.

Tammy,
This is the comment I posted on this issue the first time you opened it:
Exactly what sort of response did you receive from the School Board? Although I do believe that the situation, as you have described it, is a cause for concern, I'm not certain that SeeClickFix is the best place to try and get it addressed. This is meant to be a forum on community issues that affect the public space. If you earnestly believe that your son was abused, and that the response from the Shelby School Board was inadequate, then perhaps you should take this matter to the County School Board or even the civil court. Tammy, I'm going to close this issue, but if you feel that re-opening it will help you get this issue resolved in any way, please use the "Re-Open" link at the top of the page to reopen it. Please don't hesitate to let us know if there's anything that we at SeeClickFix can do to help you out.
