[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are new to ITDS this year. Based on the emails today - are parents always like this at this school? [/quote]

We've been at the school for several years.  I have been very happy with almost every single teacher, but these parent emails of late are having me hoping we get in somewhere else through the lottery. [/quote]

See, it has me hoping the whiny parents will move on.  If they're so unhappy, then let them find that better situation out there.[/quote]

There's nothing really better in the area.  But that doesn't mean we have to tolerate ITS' poor performance.[/quote]

Actually, you do.  You can make the rest of us annoyed, and drive away some parents who haven't experienced ITDS parents in person (see several posts in this thread).  But if you actually think you're going to change how ITDS operates, you're quite mistaken.  All you've accomplished is irritating teachers, parents, and administrators.[/quote]

On the contrary, I think calling the administration out on its poor performance has been well worth it and I shudder to think how badly they would be treating parents had the leadership of the IFA not been willing to take that step.  You're welcome.[/quote]

The IFA expressing concerns they've heard from parents directly to the leadership is how it should go.  Another constructive option: talk to (or e-mail with) administrators directly.

Not helpful or constructive: constantly making the same point on a public message board and getting newer parents concerned and upset.  There's a difference.  It's a shame you can't hear the difference and won't listen when it's explicitly explained to you (multiple times.)[/quote]
