[quote=Anonymous]For everybody saying OP can’t possibly be correct, hiring errors do happen. When I was in elementary, the parents banded together to get math teacher fired at Nysmith (back when to school was only a few years old) because she literally gave us “placement tests” every class for like 2 weeks and did nothing. My Big3 HS had to hire a new physics teacher unexpectedly over the summer so there was no ability to have the potential teacher lead a class as part of applying, and she was teaching actually incorrect information to AP physics students for the first few weeks. We had kids who took physics through CTY the summer before explaining the textbook to the rest of the class during free periods. She was fired after a few weeks and they hired a great teacher instead. My kid’s current school fired a math teacher a few weeks into school last year. Of course mistakes happen.

If this guy really hasn’t done anything except assign gobs of homework, other parents are going to be upset too. If OP is the only one who complains then sure, they were probably overreacting and the school will ignore it. But if the majority of parents with kids in that class start raising the issue, the school will look into it. [/quote]
