[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We met in-person with two persons at the school. I'll leave it vague for purposes of anonyminity, but the school personnel was able to confirm (despite prior comments to the contrary) that kid has been submitting the materials in a timely and appropriate manner. In response to one particular issue, the teacher said (more or less), "I wrote the email before I read the document. It must have been stuck in my drafts." The school did not acknowlege any wrongdoing but suggested "IT issues" on their end. Sigh. We have an agreed upon process going forward in an attempt to avoid further "IT issues" (e.g., submitting everything in the same manner, with a copy via email). Advisor to be copied in on all communications. Some other measures that I won't go into. End of the day, my kids aren't perfect; they have missed deadlines and I'm sure at times have bent the truth about timely submissions, but this time truly was not my kid's fault. Fingers crossed going forward. Perhaps it helped that I had not yet signed my re-enrollment contract when we met...[/quote]

It’s a good thing you went in. Honestly, this doesn’t sound nearly as bad as your first post made it sound. This doesn’t sound like “lunacy” or that they are “protecting the teacher at all costs.”

You’ve mentioned several times on this thread that your child isn’t perfect, which suggests there have been issues in the past. Since your child has clearly received grace, maybe it’s time to give grace to a teacher who may have made a small mistake.[/quote]
