to talk to the principal and teacher. Our kids seem to learn the unspoken messages we send them through our actions, sometimes even more than from what we tell them. I think your son will learn from your action that:
1. He can rely on you. I think that unspoken feeling of security and trust in a parent is very important for a child. (I know it is bad to be overprotective, but I don't think that is the case in this situation).
2. He will learn it is important to speak up for yourself when you feel you are not being treated fairly.
3. That behavior is unacceptable, no matter if it is done to a boy or a girl.
Yes, these things happen all the time, and she is just a child and of course she should be forgiven, but it's still logical to assume she has problems controlling her impulses and she will do it again. By talking to the principal and the teacher, hopefully his seat can be moved away from hers, but at the very least, they will probably be more vigilant in watching the girl's behavior toward your son knowing they will have to answer to you if something like this happens again.
