[quote=Anonymous]OP - 
[quote]Sounds like OP’s kid was accused of plagiarism and grades reflected that, but without the teacher reaching out to OP. [/quote]
Of course, it would be a plausible defense for an adult to "blame the child" or make a counter-accusation.  I would personally welcome the opportunity to examine each and every line of any such accusation attempt.

[quote]WHY did the teacher insist on keeping the lower grade? You have not answered this crucial question. [/quote]
I'm not sure what you meant by "keeping the lower grade", but I don't know either.  The evidence was provided.  No response as to why was given.

[quote]it sounds like you have fought the good fight, but for your child’s sake, move on. The stress in your posts is alarming.[/quote]
I didn't realize you're feeling "alarm" - and definitely had no intent to cause you stress.  Please skip over this post the next time you see it please.

02/03/2020 10:11 - from our family to yours - we sincerely appreciate your support and kindness.  Given the evidence provided, we hope to achieve a different outcome.

TO ALL:
Sigh.  Honestly, I never thought I'd be the "activist" type.  Normally I just sit quietly at home in the evenings, but here I am typing...

There are many parents who claim to be "activists" or "fight for justice" for things such as World Peace or the environment, or Whales, etc.  Yet when it comes to something close to home, such as their children, their frail and timid nature surfaces.  Folks, this is your school paid for by your taxpayer dollars.  I understand the fear of standing up and saying anything - and from the earlier comment about my child having it rough the next seven years - it's a well-founded fear.  The school is free to explain whatever they wish to, and I will listen - however, any adult who can do these things to a child (and yes, there are many more things not said here..) needs to be called out into the Light of Day.  I hope this makes sense - and that I'm not just a tree in the woods... soapbox over.  I wish everyone a pleasant (and "alarm-free") evening.
