Welcome to the "puberty school system." Boys this age are going to comment on things they didn't notice a year or two ago. "Mean girls" are going to comment about other women's figures, hair, etc. because they are feeling that natural instinct to compete for a mate. DO NOT tell the subject of these comments about it. DO NOT take your concern to the principal. If you feel you just have to be the adult in the room, quietly -- not publicly in front of the class -- tell the offending students that they wouldn't want people talking about them (or their sister, or their mother in the boys' case), so they need to show the same courtesy. Note that this is especially true in a public place and double true in school and triple true when they are talking about a teacher. You won't have to issue a direct threat. Kids aren't as dumb as they act.
I would also add that you might want to document it somewhere if it veers into particularly vulgar or sexual comments. NOT in a publicly accessible document (read all of Louisiana’s warnings and wisdom) but just somewhere in case weird things happen later. They usually don’t, but it never hurts to have a record where you can point to timestamps and establish some kind of history.
Let the teacher know so she can be more
guarded.
It depends. If the comment is…flattering to the teacher, then no. If it’s vulgar, take privately to the student who said it. If it’s something that is unflattering, like they can see up her dress by the ways she sits, then yes. Make sense?
