[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huh. As a parent I'm really surprised to hear this. I would assume some knowledge of the working level of the student and their strengths and weaknesses would be hugely valuable to hit the ground running in the beginning of the year. It definitely makes me now understand those parents who always talk to the teacher at the beginning of they year.[/quote] I taught high school, but I think I could have figured out all I needed to know from a few class sessions and a writing assignment. Whether Johnny under or over performed for Ms. Thang was just not my business. As a parent, I have had the same child go from being a poor student to being a great student. She is in HS so it is new teachers every year. They are much nicer to her now, and assume the best. One of our issues when she was a poor student is that they always assumed the worst. (The only thing that changed was that an invisible disability got resolved.)[/quote]
