That's what I think, but it doesn't help with this semester's grade.

Are you suggesting that we change for next semester? The school (private) discourages changing teachers, but I'm thinking about pressing the issue and could maybe make a case if I suggest kid be moved to non-honors instead of honors. But I want to make sure that the bad teacher doesn't teach that class, too.

Next year, student will take a different topic that this person doesn't teach.

It makes me sad that one horrible teacher can ruin a kid's transcript after that kid has worked so hard. It's like my kid--and the others--were punished for being smart and getting into this class in the first place.

With regards to the school, I'd be surprised if they aren't alarmed their best students (top 10% and 20%) are getting such low grades in this class.

Would it be wise for me to request the principal look into the class grades?
