[quote=Anonymous]If the parents stand out in some way (good or bad), yes.

Good parents: communicate/respond quickly when teacher reaches out; are glad to volunteer/be involved when the teacher requests parent involvement; come to conferences and listen to what teacher has to say; back the teacher up if there's ever a behavior issue w/ the student; make sure student is supported at home--doing homework, studying, well rested, etc. that helps them succeed at school

Bad parents: are rude or condescending to the teachers; demand too many accommodations from teachers (not talking about in the context of a real issue or IEP/504 plan, etc. just in terms of parents asking for special requests for their kids that are creating more work for teachers unnecessarily); email/phone teacher about every little issue; are argumentative/combative and resistant when an issue comes up w/ student; don't prepare their kids for school and/or don't set their kids up for success in school; don't show up to conferences or don't respond to communication from teacher

Those are the ones you will hear about from other teachers. The kids whose parents are not in the good or bad category you won't hear about.[/quote]
