[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry this happened. I don't know why the teacher didn't go back and have it retaken right after your daughter returned from speech and she realized what had happened.

But now that it has, asking the photographer to bring all their equipment back to the school to retake one picture is not a reasonable request.  It's also probably $$$--the schools get a bulk deal for one day of processing classes through like a machine but a special session for just one class is something else. Who is going to pay for this?[/quote]

The school is going to pay for it.

Frankly, this isn't an "accident".  This is what happens when schools don't think of their classes as inclusive communities.  The school is responsible for fixing it.   Sadly, if it doesn't cost them something, whether it's effort or money, then they aren't going to change what happened.  [/quote]

This. The class picture isn't a big deal, but the teacher not considering your child enough of a member of the community to fail to notice her absence is [b]a very big deal.[/b] [/quote]

Oh, come on.  It's not like she was left to fend for herself on a field trip.  You're being ridiculous.  [/quote]

I have a kid who missed the school pictures one year because of a pulll-out. This is just not a big deal. Have any of you ever been at a school during class picture day? It's a madhouse. Kids everywhere, shuffling in and out quickly, trying to keep the little ones from wrestling too much in line and messing up their nice clothes. The picture isn't redone. They don't do Photoshop. There are usually kids who miss.

If it really bothers you, ask the teacher send an email to the class saying she  is going to take a group photo of the class for the kids because some kids missed, Larla's mom will take the picture if you want copies, and please contact the teacher if you don't want your child in the photo, and photo will be taken in accord with the school photo policy, assuming they have one.[/quote]
