I understand doing that at McDonald’s or at a minimum wage job, but someone who works as an elementary school teacher not even giving noticed they just cold quitting…

Why do you expect parental control on adult and employed?

Are you a principal?

I’m a parent, my son told him she stopped showing up and she quit, I emailed the principal and she told me she resigned I asked her why, she said it personal and she wasn’t going to share it with parents…

Aaaaahahahahaha wait so she did give notice. To her employer. Just not to you. Her not employer. Got it.

This. Why are parents so upset? Would you rather force the teacher to stay to the end of the school year and take whatever they are dealing with out on your kids?

It must be extremely serious to quit 2 months before the end of the school term.

That’s terrible for all the students and hopefully there is a fantastic coverage plan for report cards, development, student recommendations, etc and she submits the yearend report cards now or massively helps the new teacher understand the class dynamics and students.

As a parent I’d absolutely want to know why this happened during the school year and if the school or admin had anything to do with it, prevent it from happening again.
Or if it was just a selfish snowflake who quit, hits the Easy Button and the children and learning suffers greatly.

How embarrassing.

Sounds mishandled all around. Teacher quits 6 mos in to a 180 day term and no one shows up.

You have no right to this information. Teachers are free to leave employment without explanation to parents. Even if it’s a “selfish snowflake”, as you so rudely suggest, you still have no right to that information and the “selfish snowflake” is still free to leave.

If teachers are oh-so-important that a mid-year departure is going to cause devastation, then why the heck aren’t they paid more? And respected more?

Calm yourself down, parent, and realize attitudes like yours contribute to the teacher shortage.

I can't imagine asking a principal why a teacher quit.

Our school, the year a 2nd grade teacher left emailed the whole class and grade, with the transition and subbing plan.

Yes, that happened when one of my son’s teachers left mid-year in elementary school. She moved to another state to be with her fiancé earlier than planned bc a job opened up unexpectedly and it was a competitive area (this was way before Covid).

I would assume that OP’s son’s teacher had something come up unexpectedly that caused her to need to resign and if I were Op, I would give her the benefit of the doubt. Think serious illness for her or immediate family member or something along those lines.

OP has no idea if the teacher gave notice or not. Then she emails the principal who replied the teacher quit. OP sends another email and demands to know why.

OP isn’t none of your business! It might have something to do with obnoxious parents like you. If you are the type to email the principal and demand to know why and then post about not giving notice in a job when you have no idea if the teacher gave notice or not you are a nightmare of a parent. Guarantee you have made a teacher cry. You are the reason teachers dream of quitting.

I’d assume the teacher sux. As a person and as a teacher.

Or there was a life threatening emergency and she had to leave town.

Anyone can call a selfish snowflake a selfish snowflake. You can’t stop people from thinking or saying that. Especially when selfish snowflake behavior just happened.
