Res9405 will regurgitate his venom because he has no new or unique thoughts. He only hates. I bet he burned out his brain using Daddy's money to get three degrees. Then b!tches that he can't leave because he is trapped here by his job (another crock of sh!t). Talk about a loser.

Last year, when someone asked my kid's teacher about email, She said she could give out her address, but she wouldn't be able to check it until late in the evenings because she was teaching kids all day. imagine that.

Is there something wrong with Kansas too?

Spoken like someone whose never watched 20 kids at once for even 5 minutes, much less tried to teach them anything.

If you think you can do better, homeschool. Lots of people do it, even people without one degree, much less 3. People do it and work full time too.

I do it the old fashioned way. I put a notebook in the front pocket of my boys backpack for the teacher and I to communicate back and forth on. I write the note, he gives it to her, I check the notebook everyday when he comes home.

I actually TRIED this.
The teacher has yet to answer or communicate with me. SO i stopped in to the classroom today, and asked why.

I was basically told something to the extent that they dont have time for that.
??? Go figure. ????

Maybe I just have a stressed out teacher and school.

Didnt mean to make anyone mad.
(Have to laf, but i believe that Res took care of THAT for us all.)

Hopefully, over the course of the school year, things get better.

Found out why our daughter was so late that first week of school. Finally spoke to the bus driver. Our daughter was the only student on board that would help the lady bus driver with the route stops, as the driver did not know it by heart yet.
No other students would help her.

I wondered if the bus drivers ever ran the bus routes before the school year was scheduled to begin.

Am just hoping. And YES, I want our child to do well in her classes, so I do strive for more. So you can make all the "sickie" faces you want. LOL.
Scholarships take effort, so we show our child that the effort pays off. Learn that from day one, and apply it, and you cant go wrong.

At any rate, things are better, on the childs' side of school. Communication is still an issue. " You cant push union affected employees to do what they arent supposed to do." Is what another parent told me.
Maybe things will improve as the year keeps rolling. Like I said, I am hoping....
