[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me, as a a school administrator, the question is whether it's really an issue specific to your child. Sometimes there's a teacher everyone wants, and one they don't. If I take teacher requests in that situation I've got a class full of kids whose parents advocate and one whose parents don't. That's not OK. On the other hand, if there's an issue that is unique to your child, or at least uncommon, that makes a specific teacher a good or bad fit, then I'll consider. I've seen kids with severe asthma moved from the dog owning teacher to the one without pets because of concerns. I've seen kids from single mom homes moved into the class with the male teacher. I've taken special needs into account when matching a child with ASD with a teacher who is good at providing visual structures and cues, or a kid with Emotional Disturbance with a teacher who is unflappable and consistent.
