[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. My child also goes to a large MS (~1400 students). It is not a W school. Email teachers separately, request 1-on-1 meetings with them. Tell them the issues with your son - overwhelmed with school, will not request a retake etc - and you will be surprised how happy teachers are to work with you to have a plan for your son. If you need to be helicopter till your kid learns to fly solo - do it. Being called a helicopter is a small price to pay for him to learn from his mistakes in middle school. Otherwise he will not learn anything by the time he gets to high school.[/quote] ...adding - talking to counselors will not get you the results that you need. They have standard tools in their bag of tricks. You need to approach the teachers and work out individual plans with them. They want your kid to succeed. [/quote]
