In an ideal and perfect world, you would be right.

In the real world, let it go.

I volunteer at my children's schools extensively, and I can see first hand how much administrators and teachers have to worry about, manage and deal with. Don't waste their time over piddling little details like that.

There are many more things that bother me about schools: for example, that parent volunteers in MCPS, stuffing Friday folders, can see all the grades earned by all the students in the class. That some teachers yell at their students way too harshly. That some schools punish the whole class for the misbehavior of a few students. That some schools punish students by taking their recess time without allowing them other means to get their energy out, which aggravates their misbehavior. The list goes on...[/quote]

You just made this post all about your problems with your school.  That has nothing to do with what the OP has stated.

OP--  you are right to address your concerns to the school about the teacher.  It is humiliating enough to have your child act out this way.  It does not need to be broadcasted out to the rest of the school.  The teacher acted unethically.

No, these are systemic problems in MCPS.
And I'm not making it all about me.
I am explaining to OP that her issue is a very minor one compared to all issues in schools these days. Having been a parent at multiple schools, I can ASSURE you that teachers and staff talk about kids, and parents, often in inappropriate ways. I mean inappropriate the way OP means inappropriate. Which again, will never change. But, go ahead and complain on principle if it makes you feel better. You might be labelled as the annoying parents, or you might not. What's certain is that nothing is going to change. I've been there, done that.
