[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TBH, you sound kind of entitled. DCPS/Charter isn't for you.  I couldn't fathom asking my kids' teachers to print out lesson plans.[/quote]

You can't? I mean... Is it unreasonable to ask a teacher what the kids have been learning, if there are vocabulary words we can learn together, etc.? I did not ask for lesson plans. But after I asked about what vocabulary words they may be learning (in second language), the next day the teacher had printed out a page on the theme they're working on, plus practice sheets for my kid. They didn't have to do that; that's why I am saying that I am happy and impressed.

It seemed to me that the teacher was genuinely happy that we were interested in helping our child succeed and wanted to show us they're doing their best.

I was curious if others have had similar situations. I read a lot about "X school sucks," "X school is the best," etc., but honestly I am wondering if other parents, like me, have felt that they may be able to influence/improve a school or classroom in similar ways.[/quote]
