[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like it would be easier to fix mistakes if they provided the schedules earlier. Why wait until the last minute?[/quote]

+1 yep. It makes more sense but of course FCPS doesn’t care. They don’t want to deal with parent calls or complaints about their child’s teacher assignments or schedule.[/quote]

Can you blame them? FCPS parents are totally nuts and it’s a full time job just dealing w complaints. I’d like to know sooner, too, as my kid has anxiety and knowing teacher assignment and which friends will be in class puts her mind at ease, but I understand why they won’t do it. [/quote]

True.  I did not go to FCPS schools, but I remember when my next door neighbor was in tears when she found out who her fourth grade teacher.  The next day, she was elated because she was reassigned to another class.  What I didn't know then--but am pretty sure now--is that her mom went to see the principal.

My neighbor was a year older than I was.  The next year I got the awful teacher that she was so upset about.  She was mean and tough and i was scared to death of her.  She was very demanding and I coasted until seventh grade as a result.[/quote]

You sound like you are judging your neighbor's mom for advocating for her child. I have absolutely gone to the principal to get my child's teacher changed when I knew it would not be a good fit. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that.[/quote]
I am trying to do that now and the principal is refusing. Any advice?[/quote]

Do you have a good reason? I had a good reason.[/quote]
