6 Year Old Got Choked In School, What Are My Options

Card image cap

Location: California

As the title state my 6 year old is in first grade. There is a student there who has problems. Like hits kids, cant focus and honestly needs specialized support and help. He can be nice, but he has issues tha5 have been documented and they even have an aid. My kid has been hit in the gut, the head and then today choked. The other kid was hitting him, he asked him to stop and then that kid used both hands and choked my kid. It shook my kid up, but he was over it by the time the day was done. We've heard about it all year where kids are accustomed to getting hit, smacked and that there are different standards for this 1 kid.

The principle says there is a Meeting on it tomorrow, but nothing changes and has happened to multiple kids. She says she cant discuss and takes this seriously but did not address my concerns. We are in California, does anyone have ideas or options we could take to get a better response?

Thanks,
