In our state, that can be a felony aggravated assault charge (assuming they meet mens rea and charges are pressed).

2nd graders pretty much have to kill or permanently maim the teacher before something serious happens.

Of course some of these are 3rd time 2nd graders

Yeah, that's a bit on the young side for mens rea in most states. And even if they meet that the system is hesitant to do anything.
