[quote=Anonymous]I don't think there is a middle school that will address the current problems, without strong parent advocacy and involvement. You can be involved, have questions, and be "nice" and understanding of what the teachers are juggling. It actually feels the opposite of nice to blame the teachers for not seeing and fixing these problems without your participation. You kid missed half of kinder and almost all of first. Mine too. It really really messed mine up in math and we were going down the path of evaluation for special needs when some good tutoring (from the school but we sought it out and asked for it) really identified what he needed to work on and explained to us how some kids were able to recover from the missed years and some really needed to work hard to make it up. I am not victim blaming but the school you are looking for (public, will do the work for you) doesn't exist.[/quote]
