Mom attacked by Virginia Beach School Administrators at IEP meeting
Dear Blogmates,
Please see a the link below about how Alison Jordan a Virignia Beach Special Education Coordinator , and Mrs. Kimberly Dailey the 7th grade principal at Larkspur Middle school have been accused of physically assaulting a PARENT at an IEP team meeting at Larkspur Middle School. I personally believe the assault happened, in that I have attended numberous IEP meeting with Mrs. Jordan who in my opinion is down right hateful towards anyone who challenges her position. I have also been informed that Ms. Jordan and Mrs. Dailey were arrested and charged with misdemeanors of assault and the court date is July 22, 2009.
Parents of special education students in Virginia Beach City Public Schools, now need to protection from being assaulted by Ms. Jordan at IEP meetings. I highly suggest that you demand her Supervisor, Mr. Mitchell attend your meetings especially if your child’s at Larkspur Middle School. Otherwise you may run the risk of better physical harm at the IEP meetings.
It is shame that the Dr. Massey the Superintendent for all Virginia Beach City Middle Schools supports and allows this kind of behaviors under his watch. It’s a sad day when we as parents not only have to protect our children from harm in our schools, now we have to protect ourselves for being assaulted by school personnel. ONLY IN VIRGINIA BEACH can this kind of injustice be considered as “professional ” behavior!
Happy Advocating
