[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is nothing wrong with requesting a teacher, just be sure its done nicely and that you are still fine with the school if your request is not honored.[/quote]

All great in theory, but the conundrum presented by the pp you guys are calling names is all too real.  How can a parent in fact "be fine" with a school they are likely to be admitted to (via walking distance proximity preference, as in this case) when one PreS3 teacher is great, and the other is known to be an unmitigated disaster?  What should the obnoxious pp do in this case?  Quietly pull out if assigned the teacher who drove the other middle-class parents out the year before?  Not apply in the first place, knowing that s/he won't accept the bad teacher?  If your teacher request is not honored and you're certain that your kid will suffer with the bad teacher, you accept the class assignment anyway to be...a good liberal and citizen?  Then you pull out quietly, leaving the bad teacher to the poor kids?  Big help to them, eh!
