[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would think private school would be more susceptible to parent bullying. They certainly have parents with the attitude "I am paying your salary so you'd better do as I ask"[/quote] Actually, the administrators generally back their teachers at the private schools. According to my sister, the headaches of bureaucracy and formal administrative mechanisms that you have to go through when a ps parent complains to the school system about your grading of their child, makes it not worth it in most cases for the teachers to stand firm. Private schools, on the other hand, seem to take the attitude that "if you do not like the way we do things [like grade your child] then you are welcome to leave because there are 20 people waiting to have your spot."[/quote]
