[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I’ve sent 2 emails and not gotten response, I would make sure they aren’t out of the school sick or anything. And then email HOS.

I did this once and it turns out the teacher thought she had addressed my questions by speaking to my kid instead of replying via email to me. Not a big deal; everyone was fine about it. I know teachers are busy teaching and email is not always the top priority. But my kid is my top priority and needed help, so I found a way to get a response.[/quote]

Thank you all for the kind replies. I guess that I never had this kind of experience before. So far, I have not heard back from this teacher. I will wait till Thursday and then email HoS. Nothing too dreadful I hope. I thought it would have been an easy email. I triple checked today to make sure the email address is correct. :( [/quote]

Wait! Have you emailed the teacher a second time?  If not, send a brief email "hi! Just circling back on this..."   don't report the teacher to the HOS.  You're going to appear crazy and the teacher won't be super pleased with you. Give the second email 24 hours--Then email the divisional head.  [/quote]
