Scared?[/quote]

For your kid's and your family's privacy?  Yes.

If I respond to a parent's request for understanding of a grade and I attach a pdf of the interim and then provide a written commentary (Lucas did not turn in 5 assignments, Lucas did not attempt any re-takes and his test scores are 88, 15, 43 and 71, Lucas frequently is not prepared for class and on 32 days this quarter did not have a pencil or his iPad when he came to class, Lucas has disclosed that he has concerns about some family stuff that is causing him to be distracted so I suggested that he tell you about it and also referred him to the counselor, and I have sent you 2 emails and left 3 voice mail messages about all of the afore-mentioned but have not heard from you until now which is unfortunate because it is [i]2 days before grades are due[/i]).

Am I scared that I said something uncharitable and derogatory in an email to another teacher about the fact that a parent waited until the end of the grading period to send an email asking about Lucas's grade and implied that he was going to complain to the principal because his kid was failing?  No, I save that for a verbal conversation, which is not subject to FOIA and is not documented.[/quote]
