[quote=Anonymous]I personally would be pursuing both issues.  I would not only address my comments to the school administration, but also cc the school board on your communication.

First, you need to present the medical evidence that your child was ill and hospitalized.  Doctor records of treatment, the discharge papers from the hospital.  You have documented evidence that your child was ill enough to be admitted to the hospital and that the teacher refused to take this into account and provide laxity in grading and allow her time to catch up.  You can point to the fact that you requested support services for your child as soon as she was diagnosed, but the school deferred her review until the summer and hence she is being punished for the school administration's procrastination.  This topic is for the school administration.

Second, you need to address the issue of a teacher that is bullying her students.  The cry board is completely inappropriate and the teacher needs to be disciplined and educated about appropriate educational tools.  Bullying does not qualify as a teaching tool under any circumstances and the school board needs to be aware that there is a teacher in the school district that is doing this.  This needs to be on the teacher's record.  This way if she transfers to another school, there will be a record that this teacher has done this before.  While I know that most people want to avoid going out there to do this, you are doing this to ensure that your child is the last child to be bullied by this teacher.  Too often, I've seen and heard of teachers who had problems and bullied students who transferred to another school and there was no record of what they did and they were free to bully an entirely new cohort of students with no repercussions.
