[quote=Anonymous]My kid is in middle school and his English teacher is terrible. We haven’t had a single large writing assignment all year and he’s in 8th. My elementary kid has more work than my 8th. I thought they were doing most work in class but turns out he just gives short writing prompts all year. And worst of all he’s always absent and sub is there all the time. He will just send a random assignment to the sub to monitor and apparently none of the kids do it when subs are around. The year is 1/2 over now and not really time to swap teachers anymore. I’m just disappointed and worried how 9th grade will be when he seems to have wasted all year with this absent and disconnected teacher. Anyway, I’m wondering if it’s worth raising to the principal in an inquisitive way. Maybe he has some personal issues. But also don’t want to get my kid in trouble or teacher in trouble. I just want my kid to be prepared for high school. :( WWYD? Just get him a side toutor?[/quote]
