[quote=Anonymous]If the subject is math, then Kumon might be the answer. We were able to get a child moved from a class based on having a documented disability -- were able to show that the specific issues the teacher had (heavy accent, poor grammar) were too much for a kid with auditory processing issues. We were also able to have an abusive substitute removed from the system by threatening to go to the press -- He was disciplining kids by sending them out into the 'hallway' -- but unfortunately it was a cubicle so he was sending kids outside the cubicle (i.e. outdoors) in February, when it was snowing, without jackets on, for up to 45 minutes. The thing is, these days, kids will document everything, so there was actual video of the incidents. Our kids also had video of the substitute making racist and sexist remarks in class, so even though he was an older retired teacher who was a favorite of the administration, they had no choice but to let him go.[/quote]
