Administrators enter EVERY violation, no matter how small, into a record keeping system. The purpose is to keep track. If a kiddo messes up once or twice, it serves as a record that he or she made a bad choice, and then figured out how to follow the rules. If a kid has repeated behavior problems, the schools can help him or her better if they know what is happening, when, with who, so on. Also, it is almost a given in the current climate that a kid who is a chronic offender will have a parent who thinks he or she can do no wrong. If the schools don't keep the record, they will say the school has no proof. If they do keep a record, they are micromanaging. The sad part for parents is that they pass up a great opportunity to help their kids when they fight the school at every turn. Fortunately, most parents are awesome, work with the schools when concerns arise, and we all move forward. It is too bad that there are still too many people here who look for fault in the actions of everyone else every time. Must be a tough life.
