[quote=Anonymous]1. Contact. Do you have the right email address? Sometimes teachers prefer a specific one, which they usually give out during Back To School Night. Ask the counselor, and CC the Principal, for a meeting with the teacher if you cannot contact them successfully.

2. Grades. See 1.

3. End of year shenanigans. Yes, right now, a lot of teachers are switching to babysitting mode. My son's AP World History teacher apparently didn't teach them all the units, so *after* the AP exam, he went crazy and wanted his students to finish the missing units. This led to my son working through the weekend AFTER the last day of the school year, to get an A in the class. It was nuts, completely nuts. But most teachers are the opposite: they front load so they can relax a bit at the end of the year.

3. Why are you suddenly waking up now? May 28 isn't the time when anyone is going to be responsive, OP. This is on the parents, too. The time for establishing contact with a problematic teacher is in the first semester.[/quote]
