[quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry you’re starting out so badly. But you have to figure out how to turn this around. They won’t and don’t need to. You’re just one family and a second of time for them and this is your life.  For the next 13 years.  If you can’t do turn it around, you will lose your child’s school years to anger instead of enjoying them.

I am gently suggesting you try to reframe things. Maybe there was a miscommunication not lies. And with miscommunication, there doesn’t need to be blame. Maybe someone unintentionally forgot to send documents home. Try to think the best about them.

I’d also suggest that you educate yourself and that you learn to be precise with communication. Ask questions and get specific information about what is happening when and who has responsibility for what. Ask if they are waiting for anything from you in order for the next steps to occur. At the end of a conversation, summarize and confirm.

My final suggestion is that you not allow the negativity of this site to be your model. There is great information and assistance here. But virtually every post about schools ends up with people bashing those who have had positive experiences.

Hard as it is, I wouldn’t worry too much right now about the lost time. There is plenty of time to make up any lost learning. [/quote]

It depends. When you need a FBI there may be time lost to picking up a child which means the child can’t learn and the parent can’t work and the disruption is incredible. Not to mention the setting of a bad pattern for the child. So in that case, the delay is pretty significant. [/quote]
