Advice needed regarding filing assult charges

[Sandyintexas]

Recently my 10 yr. old son was physically attacked by his music teacher.
Following the protocol of our ISD we filed complaints and also filed with the police dept.
After "investigation" by the admin. Offices of our ISD they propose:
The teacher suspension and some training.
That our son not go to music classes, but work in the library on music days.
The police dept. awaits our decision to file an assault charge.
For us, our son's well being is priority, where the district seems to be the teacher’s contract and their reputation.
It's hard to believe that our son should have to make concessions under these circumstances.
We dread filing the charge and the court involvement because of the emotions repercussions on our son (already surfacing), BUT also know that her mere presence at the school can be damaging for him. Also...that she is allowed to remain would send a terrible message to him that because she is an adult she can get away with that type behavior.
ANY ADVICE would be appreciated.

What type of assault was it, did it leave any marks? What were the circumstances leading up to the assault?

This is why it's useful to use your original thread, Sandy. https://forum.freeadvice.com/showthread.php?t=290412 is where the info is found, lnb.

Yes, it left a bruise on his neck.

Happened during a firedrill, which she said she never heard (alarm) and all kids went out of class. My son sat on a bike and she came up behind him, grabbed him by the neck, twisting and pinching before she let go. Then she grabbed his right shoulder, as he squirmed to be released she grabbed his right index finger and pulled it behind his back, walked him to the curb and proceeded to tell the entire class they were "stupid idiots, and to shut-up".

If it left physical marks, and the assault was unprovoked (don't take that the wrong way) then I would file charges.
