Perhaps because I’m a teacher by profession that this all makes me irrationally angry. If a kid doesn’t have a well informed parent advocate, he or she might really have problems with all kinds of things—access, timetabling, etc. It shouldn’t be that way. It shouldn’t be a fight. I think back to my high school days. My parents didn’t need to get involved. I’ve had to push and advocate repeatedly for my daughter and she only spend a year and a half in school. If I was not informed, she’d have missed out on several opportunities.Well it’s not my kid. I’m going to assume her parents are dealing with it. But I did mention if it was her I would be on the phone to the principal and if they didn’t get it figured out my next call would be the school board.
Tou are right it’s crazy it’s mid September. And I don’t like ford, but you can’t blame the mess in high schools on them. The Boards have known about a hybrid model for a couple months that is plenty of time to figure this stuff out. Lots of businesses including my own work had to adapt and change things with zero notice. The fact that schools still can’t figure things out if disgusting.
