[quote=Anonymous][quote]You should ask, but be aware that it might mean your kids might not get the best teacher[/quote] I did this, realizing that my son would not get the teacher I would have preferred. However, being with the other child outweighed the teacher. It was the right call. In DS's case, he liked the kid. The problem was that the kid had great influence on him. (The child lived next door and was a serious problem. Lots of destructive behavior.) Absolutely, the right decision. Also, DD was bullied in fourth grade. The counselor then handpicked which class to put her in. The purpose was not to choose the teacher--but the kids. The counselor did this for fifth and sixth and there was a huge difference. In both years, there might have been a better teacher--but both years were very good for DD. Big change.[/quote]
