OK, this isn't directly related to your question - but - I'm just curious - was anything said by school staff about addressing the issue that your dd was able to go to the bathroom alone and able to access a window that she could climb out of? What would they have done if she'd managed to leave the courtyard? That just worries me a little bit. Our kids were never allowed to go the bathroom alone in K-1. They could go anytime they needed to, but they had to grab a buddy to go with them.

And the window.... seems like it should be locked or have a screen over it or something. I am not an alarmist, but I can totally see a bunch of impish little early elementary tikes thinking it would be fun to go through the window!
