I'm so pissed at the public school system right now. I thought it sucked when I went to school, I think its even worse now. Not one of his teachers let me know he was failing classes, the counciler did not notify me , nothin.
Back in my day if I was failing or dropping grades I would have had my parents called and I would have been required to stay in during lunch or after school to make up my grade.
They tell me they can not take the time to do this because they have too many students so its impossable to notify parents of failing kids.
Bullshit.
He has ADD, the school is aware of it and they are required to help him because of it, so he is on a program.
Now they say in order to help him he has to go to "special ed classes" and see the school psychologist.
The same quack who said my kid was anti social and depressed and had trouble finding friends in his peer group....(all false)
For fucks sake, all I am asking is for an email or phone call when his grades are falling, and for the teacher to keep him focused by reminding him to turn in work. I dont think it required a "special ed" teacher for that.
Sorry for the rant, carry on.
