What would you do?:
If a student was ever that disruptive not just towards me and my teaching but towards the other students in the class action would have to be taken immediately. I think that if any student, no matter how disruptive they had been in the class, got physical with another student or with me, I would immediately go across the hall, ask another teacher to watch my room and then take the student down to the office. If the student was unwilling to go, then I would make a phone call from my room to the office for someone to come down and help me whether it be a resource officer, the principal, or another teacher. The student needs to be removed from the classroom and taken to another area, probably the office. The parents would have to be called immediately and maybe even authorities if the student continues any physcial behavior or threatens the physical safety of another. I would do everything in my power to make sure that the other students in my classroom were safe and my own safety as well.

I totally agree with that. That kind of behavior is not acceptable and should not be tolerated. I would also follow the same steps as you; find some help either from across the hall or by using the phone. I know that I would have a tough time trying to stop myself from pushing back if a student shoved me but doing so would end my career.
