[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember someone saying kids are supposed to get 3-4 days notice for a test in high school or at least a weekend.

My son had four tests one day and two tests the next day. He wasn’t given much time to prepare for these exams and I’m wondering if he can speak to teachers about giving more notice. Having a weekend really helps him since he just takes longer to read, take notes and study.

He has severe ADHD, vision issues and processing issues (yes he has a 504) so this is very stressful when tests with lots of content are sprung on him with 1-2 days notice.

Anyone ever address this issue? 
The teacher who really piled it on said my son needed to justify why he couldn’t prepare in two days. Honestly, it was a lot. I’d struggle to master that even if it’s the only work I had.

The teacher was not nasty.
The teacher was polite and offered a lot of helpful information.
Sorry your child is so stressed out but the teacher did not deserve your anger.[/quote]
