[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For all the teachers on her quick to judge--the lack of response has been a pattern and the most recent email was sent early this week with break not starting till yesterday.  Of course I don't expect a response during Xmas vacation.  I've been waiting 5 days to get her opinion on an issue about my child that is directly related to school.   So sick of this.  Last year we had a teacher who was great with email.  I really think she's just collecting a check.[/quote]

Unless the opinion is about a very discreet issue and can be conveyed in three sentences or less, you should be requesting a phone call to discuss the matter.  
Writing an opinion sounds like a potentially time consuming task.  [/quote] Also, it is not advisable for teachers to get into details about a student via email. General emails outlining the issue then a face to face of phone call to discuss in detail. Don't let parents bait you into something that will later come back to bite you if you give a wrong response because you didn't have time to think it through or consult with the right person.

Parents nd teachers need a paper trail to show what was said.  A phone call is not enough.[/quote]
