I went to pick Noah up from school yesterday and the teacher told me that he was being very disruptive in class. He took everyones pencils and broke them, then he wrote all over everybodys erasers and took stuff off the teachers desk. They were doing there journals and the teacher moved him beside a child that is really calm and him and Noah get along great, well Noah took the boys journal and scribbled all over the picture he drew. The little boy cried cause he was very happy with the picture and was very sad when Noah ruined it. Noah keeps telling her No and I dont have to do that. She told me that she wants to have a meeting with The principle, her, Mike and I next week to talk about Noahs behaviour.
