Hope this helps

Hopefully the teacher explained and justified satisfactorily to you and your wife why all of the children were disciplined and not the guilty who caused the misdeed. If the culprit was not known. That kind of discipline is not acceptable. It is wrong and punishes and makes the innocents kids, who may not even have a clue of what happened, suffer too.
I praise the relationship of trust and confidence
Your children have in you and your wife.
Your children feel confident that if something is done to them they do not deserve, and they feel is wrong. They can confide in their parents and feel there will be a resolution.
Especially your child feels that the punishment of them for some others misdeeds were not fair. Keep encouraging this kind of relationship.
Keep your composure and seek the solution as Sister Linda has suggested.
It is a shame the teachers and administration have their hands tied.
The whole process has to be a continuous chain. Parent, Child, Teacher, Principle, Board Administration and the Department of Education.
My signature. When someone has their hands tied, something inside them dies, is lost, or is never resolved. That signature comes from experience.
The teachers feel they have no say so, for fear of firing or reprimand.
The principle may take the low road of just accepting the dilemma as well.
As a parent you can change something. You don't have your mouth taped or your hands bound.

Trouble is a form of attention. You want attention. sqeak and start trouble.

The elected St. Louis Board of Education is composed of members elected at large by the voters of the City of St. Louis. School Board members serve without compensation. When vacancies occur between elections,
the Mayor appoints a replacement to serve until the next Board election.
The Board selects a president, vice president and secretary each June.
Currently, the St. Louis Public Schools District is under the governance of a three-member Special Administrative Board (SAB). One member is appointed by the Governor, one by the Mayor of St. Louis and one by the President of the St. Louis Board of Aldermen.
MAYBE THIS IS NOT PROPER. THINGS ARE GETTING CIRCUMVENTED ( skirted ) IMPROPERLY.. QUESTION THIS SET-UP... politicians in concert with no desire to do the right thing. Have their controlled cronies in place. The board can put in some trailers for over crowding. They can Redirect some funds to make classes smaller... and get more teachers aids involved.
The SAB has the legal responsibility for the education of children from ages 5 to 21 who live within the city boundaries.
It is a policy-making body with the primary function of establishing and monitoring rules, plans and procedures for the school system. The Board appoints a superintendent to manage its budget, supervise the staff and students, and make recommendations for the operations of the schools and support services.
Elected Board members and Special Administrative Board members may be reached at 314-345-2230.
