[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a first grade teacher, I don't have the time, energy, or ability to notify parents about every behavior problem in my class. If something is solved with a warning or a few minutes in a "take a break" location, I let it go. With 25 parents, I've only spoken to one parent repeatedly about behavior. If parents initiate a conversation I answer questions, but teachers are already busy.

Maybe try checking in with the teacher at pick up once in a while, and see if you can get a more accurate account of what's happening in the classroom. [/quote]

[b]Then you are failing as a teacher and a parent cannot work on any concerns or get the child outside help if you will not communicate with them. [/b]

Op, as adoptive parent, we know that there is a much higher likelihood of special needs.  You may need to look at alternative schools for your child.  I would also be very concerned about him being at an all white school with no similar peers. [/quote]

Based on what OP said about the teacher's written eval, nothing seems to have been solved with a warning or a break. And she is specifically asking for information. If you are too busy to provide information that is specifically asked for, you need to consider changing some things about the way you do your job. [/quote]
