[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am unhappy right now that my daughter is seated next to a boy she that she is good for, but that is bad for her.  The teacher has told her she is good for him and therefore will continue to keep them seated together, but when DD doesn't get her in class work done or does badly on a test, she says he distracted her.  Plus, we have at least two hard to control kids in each of our 2nd grade classrooms (all are out of bounds transfers).   I saw the post on the GT and I am wondering if it might provide a better learning environment than this craziness in our "good" MCPS elementary that is being made a less than optimum environment because no transfer is ever turned down.[/quote]

This was my DD in ES. She is NOT the teacher's assistant, or the SN assistant. There was nothing I could do to get her out of that role, which was very damaging to her, and discriminatory as well. None of the PTA mom's daughters were required to babysit for the SN/EMO kids. She was 8-9 years old (4th grade). She is there to get an education. It was a deciding factor in moving to a private school -- I wish we had done it sooner. Your DD is NOT the teachers assistant, and no amount of "shaming" to get her to do it by the teacher calling her names will change that. I hope you are successful, and good luck.
