[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a really good question and if the principal was offended by it, that says a lot more about the principal and the supports (or lack of supports) s/he provides the teachers at the school than it does about the parent who wants to make sure the teacher has that support structure. [/quote] This was my thought, as well. This Dad simply said what I’m usually thinking at IEP meetings. I’ve been that general Ed teacher with 140 other students, who is being told to devote 5-7 hours weekly to individualized plans for one student. I’ve sat next to administrators who have assured the parents I will “spend every waking hour” making sure these accommodations are met. I’ve also had an administrator say “Ms. X will make your child her top priority.” The promises made are often NOT sustainable. I’ve said that during meetings just to be run over by my admin. Thank you, Dad, for questioning the workload and whether it was all useless blather by an administrator.[/quote]
