Child Having Down Syndrome, FAS, Aggressive, Frustated. Medication?

Our adoptive 12 year old son has Down Sydrome and FAS. He is aggressive and easily frustrated. This school year has been horrible with us accusing his personal aid of child abuse as he was keeping our son in an empty class room for hours and our son had three times open cuts at same place on his forehead . After investigating the school replaced this aid but now the teacher, who loved our son last year, is very distant to our son and now writing him up for every problem. I am afraid for him in this classroom. He was on Resperdal but now he is on Seroquel 100mg which does not seem to help our son. His doctor refuses to try any other med or put him back on Resperdal which was working. We need HELP
