[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is this a thing?

I'm a parent of a freshman so I've had very little exposure to teachers yet, but already there are two very bad teachers that seem should be removed ASAP and I don't know how they are still employed.

Teacher #1 - 
I've met so many parents independently of boys, girls, athletes, non-athetes complain about this one PE teacher. [b]In her back to school night presentation she talks about her stillbirth. Which I think was set up to prepare us for her constant absences and negative attitude. [/b]

My varsity athlete in 3 sports absolutely dreads PE with her and has a B despite actually trying and being one of the best (insert any activity they're doing). She actively goes after them too[b]. I only get constant negative reports from her when no other teacher ever even sends me an email.[/b]

You are obviously a miserable person who possesses less empathy than a rock.

1. The teacher presenting about her stillborn baby is not a "set up." What would make you think she'd constantly be absent just because she shared a detail about her family and its tragic loss? And then you assume that because the teacher lost a child, she will have a negative attitude? What is wrong with you? Show some compassion.

2. Being a multi-sport athlete does [u]not[/u] mean your kid is a stellar PE student. Maybe he refuses to follow rules, learn new skills, and/or do his work in Health or Driver's Ed.

3. Maybe you only get negative reports from the one teacher because your kid has picked up on your holier than thou approach, thinking your kid is perfect, or maybe he's picked up on your piss poor attitude about non-academic classes.

Maybe this teacher is indeed a terrible teacher. Or maybe you and/or your kid are the problem. I predict it's the latter.[/quote]

I've never, ever had a problem with a school or a teacher before this one in particular. Obviously, kid is at TJ. But also, there are ***lots*** of other parents having the same issue with this teacher as discussed on an internal parents chat. I confirmed in person that it was, indeed, the same teacher we were all complaining about.

I'm a recurrent pregnancy loss patient myself but I'm done with her piss poor attitude. [/quote]
