[quote=Anonymous]Sorry - this has hurt my DD in MS big time.  Both in 6th grade and 8th grade

Her Math teacher did not take a long leave of absence. What she did instead is take leave from day to day  and made an appearance every so often just for a day. so this allowed her not to go on long term leave. This went on for months after months after months. So the subs my DD got were on a daily basis...uninterested middle aged men with starbucks coffee cups and Sudoku books in hand.

Eventually - she went for long term leave and a very substandard long term sub was found.

The same teacher pulled the same stunt after 2 years again.

And in the summer she applied and got transferred to another MCPS MS.  Where I am sure she is doing the same thing.

Maybe she has a child or spouse who is severely ill at home...maybe something bad is in her life.  I have sympathy for whatever her situation may be in life...I just thought that this was a very horrible thing to do to her students.  Anyways,  Karma will come and bite her someday.

So - my answer to any situation where there is long term sub ...or prolonged use of short term sub is occurring is to transfer the child.

3 subject areas to be particularly vary about is Math, Science and Foreign Language.
