[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You reach out and contact them. Be your child’s number one advocate and contact them to get help for your child and to find out why they are failing.[/quote] I disagree. Your kid is in middle school now. You know about the grades because they are posted. You have been notified. You go through each class with your kid and help them compose an email with a proposed plan to get back on track. State the plan for making up missing work and which days they plan to see the teacher for extra help. Do they have a time build into the school day for remediation? Make a schedule. The email comes from your kid, not you, but it’s okay to copy you. [/quote]
