[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids in MS are learning how to be good students including how to communicate with teachers. The skill continues to evolve through HS. Some kids learn it quickly and others take time. As Far as teachers not responding, I’d cross that bridge when you come to it. I have three kids who went through MCPS (last one graduated last year). Not once did my kids have issues with staff being unresponsive. So I wouldn’t waste my time preparing my kids for something unlikely to happen. So here’s a piece of advice. If your kids play a fall sport in HS, tryouts are the second week of August and practice starts immediately after that. Another piece of advice. Your kids will need a sports physical in order to participate. [/quote] NP. My kid does email his teachers but there are 2 who never respond. Never. [/quote] Or have a different demeanor towards students but when parents get involved, it's all "oh Mr or Mrs Larla, yes of course." Parents: don't let your kids have to make multiple requests and contact a teacher for one thing. They shouldn't be putting unnecessary stress on themselves after they have done as far as contacting their teacher. You can contact the teacher. Have student ask counselor to get involved. And finally you as a parent contact counselor too. If severe, get kid's Assistant Principal involved. [/quote]
