> Today a student came up to me to report that a student was poking other children on the school bus with a needle. (The needle was the kind that is used by diabetics to check their blood sugar levels.) He was using the same dirty needle to poke other children with.
>
> I went to the pricipal to report this but she was not at school yet. I then went to the assistant pricipal's office. He told me to write a disciplinary report on the young guy and that he would get to it later.
>
> His order upset me because to me he should have called the young boy in right away. I then went to the main office and told the secretary that I thought that this deserved immediate attention.
>
> I later went to the principal to suggest to her that the parents of the victims needed to be contacted.
>
> All in all, the young perpetrator only got suspended from school for three days.
>
> Am I crazy to think that not enough was done in this situation. I can only think about if someone poked my child with a dirty needle. I would be outraged.
>
> The OCD in me keeps telling me that I handled the whole thing wrong. I am also afraid that the assistant principal will hold something against me because I went above his head.

I'd also go tell the school nurse. She/he'll understand the severity of this situation. You'll probably get a lot farther with the nurse telling the parents then you will with a principle. Just a suggestion.
