[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do wonder if teachers appreciate parents who mostly keep quiet except the rare occasion something important comes up (maybe once or twice a year). Sometimes I feel like we are overlooked and the whole squeaky wheel thing.[/quote] It matters a lot if you're at a school that ends in 2nd/3rd/8th because, all else equal, the recommendation letters (whether from the HOS or a teacher) will likely "go to bat" for DC if your family doesn't have a PITA reputation -- and even more so if you're known to be kind and friendly. Admissions committees want to know if you're someone they want in their community.[/quote]
