[quote=Anonymous] [quote]Anonymous wrote: Nope. Sorry. Teachers who can’t grade in the time frame required by the district need to figure it out. That’s crucial feedback for learning and not providing it is negligent. I'm a very hard line on this as well. Grade on time or you will be hearing from me. [/quote] I think both of you are missing the point. It's not that teachers don't think work should be graded in a timely manner. It's that teachers should not be THREATENED by parents. In this example, the teacher was threatened immediately by a parent before there was even any evidence that the teacher wasn't grading work promptly. The assumption here--that the teacher is lazy and needs the whip cracked at them in order to work--is outrageous. Imagine if you were treated this way by your clients/co-workers. If you have a problem with the teacher, by all means approach them. But don't threaten them, and don't approach their boss/the PTA/DCUM before you talk to them.[/quote]
