This is grade 1 and my oldest kid, so does this get better or worse?

My daughter who is in grade nine attends a school with kids from the L&L program (learning and literacy program). It’s meant to integrate and help kids with literacy obstacles so that they can one day attend their community schools. Most of the kids are good, and they pose no issues with the overall class dynamic. But there are definitely the kids with serious social and emotional problems that take away from a healthy learning environment. I think the overall idea of the program is positive, however they need to flag the kids who shouldn’t be there. Trying to learn while a kid throws desks all over the class room while students cower in fear is unacceptable. Having students tell their teachers to #### off is also unacceptable. But they send them home (or somewhere else, I don’t know), and try it again a few weeks later. It really puts the other students on pins and needles.
