Are you always this dramatic? Couldn’t you have just emailed the teacher your question?

+1. As your child gets even older, the less useful BTSN becomes. We finally stopped going to the HS ones. <My y9ungest is in MS and this year’s was meh.

I guess the 30 minute meet your K teacher where parents were given a very generic overview of year was it. A little disappointed because now that the year has started I was hoping for a little more info on what would be going on.

And to add - I know B2SN sucks for teachers, I am one and have done them for many years.

Sounds like you DID have BTSN with your 30 min meeting. That's what it IS!

+1. Exactly.

+1 I was relieved our kids high school did it at the open house parents and students walked the halls together.-met teachers Teachers didn't have to be there till ridiculous times at night. It feels like we are just reaching for things to complain about.
