Too funny! I knew there was an angle, she was trying to look all angelic for Daddy. Ummm sorry sister but he pegged you years ago for the ahem that you are.
As for the papers, no I am not out from under them yet! I go the 7th grade reading teachers "strike system" today. I have 2 words for you Missssssss "M", Bite and Me! Oh and this is not a school wide rule handed down from the Board of Ed, each teacher gets to write their own rules. But did we get an actual copy of what type of behavior merits a strike? no, she left it open to her interpretation, or PMS mood. I rarely say I hate someone with a passion but she makes me so mad that I think I will have a heart attack one day just because of her and the garbage she spews. Honestly she has no business being in front of children, she needs to work in a cubicle somewhere where she has no human contact.
This is my favorite line from the letter:
Students are required to return detention slip with parent signature on the day of the detention. If the slip is not signed, another detention will be issued in addition to the original one.
Who the Hades does she think she is??? Like my kid can make me sign anything! Same thing for if they are late for school, automatic detention. Guess what sweetheart my boys have no control over wether they are late or not, I drive them, I get them there when I deem it necessary to be there. (which btw is on time most days)
DS7's teacher was hounding him today about all those papers, uh hello! I can hand them into the office when I'm damn well ready to. Don't funnel info through my kids please and get them all worked up! If you have an issue, concern, or question pick up the telephone or wait til the end of the day, they know I'm there all.the.time.
sorry if offend any teachers here, but these bureaucratic, busy body, hoo hahs really tick me off with their "policies".
Yes I may live in Blink but I'm not some dumb hick farmer that needs to be told to wipe my butt because I'm to stupid to figure it out on my own. Apparently we need rescuing by dem' dar city slickers. The darn principal lives clear across the state (refuses to move his family here) and the Superintendent lives in Vermont! He lied at his previous job, saying he was retiring to get out of his contract so he could come here. And these people are teaching my children!
Oy! Bet you weren't expecting that vent were ya????
My sincerest apologizes to all the fantabulous teacher out there,
~ the non-conformist
p.s. It only took them 2 days to tick me off, that ladies and gentlemen is a new record!
P.P.S. Only 178 days of school left, Lord give me the strength to make it through this year and next. DS12 wants so desperately to graduate with his friends but I don't think I have the will to deal with the school for 2 more years.
Wow Nan, you are on fire today.
