[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand that some parents are a PITA but our school treats every parent this way and it's nuts. The school takes in zero unsolicited feedback. They generally don't seek it and always brush away anything they don't want to hear. Even for a parent of an independent student who shares nothing and we see no need to engage with teachers...it makes for a crummy culture (for students and families too).[/quote] Is this NCS (upper school)? It's certainly our experience there. They say"we're partners with you in your child's education" but if you ever need ANYTHING (like a 5 minute conversation (for the first time ever) when your child is struggling and can't seem to advocate for themselves despite trying repeatedly) they act like you're an insane helicopter parent who is trying to limit your child's independence while grossly overstepping your role.[/quote]
