[quote=Anonymous]NP. Stuff like this DOES matter if you have a sensitive kid. In 4th grade, my DD had a bad teacher -- nothing special, just kind of a jerk. He played favorites, seemed to prefer the boys, and unevenly disciplined students. I spoke to him a number of times and went on one or two class field trips and really disliked him. No big deal, we all have teachers we don't like. But one day DD got a 92 on a math test, and he apparently told her in a nasty voice, "You know, next time you should actually *try* to get a 100." He also told the class they had to get perfect scores on their SOLs or they didn't deserve to be in AAP. Whether these comments are 100% accurate or exaggerated in DD's mind, I can't tell you how much damage they have done. Things that seem innocuous to adults can stick with kids for a long, long time.[/quote]
