[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid had almost 100 missing assignments last quarter and the teacher never reached out (elementary school).  I stopped checking Canvas because it never occurred to me that my A student had simply checked out and started lying to me about completing his work.  Could I have done better monitoring?  Absolutely!  Could my little kid have just been more responsible?  Of course!  Could the teacher have reached out to meet with me to discuss rather than just dumping the info on the report card? I think so.  I’ve been very understanding of APS navigating the pandemic and having to rely heavily on remote learning, but this made me realize the teacher probably doesn’t like my kid and doesn’t care if he learns anything this year.  Not really the vibe anyone wants for their kid.[/quote]

APS teacher here. I’m so sorry this happened and I hope you have complained at the principal level. That is ridiculous. I give between 2-4 canvas assignments per day and if I had 2+ days where a student didn’t turn in work, I’d be contacting parents. this year has been hard for both parents and teachers but that is ridiculous by any measure.[/quote]

DP. A similar thing happened to my kid. I did send an email to the principal concerned that the teacher seemed to be a bit disconnected and had not reached out. The principal responded that it was a difficult year and teachers are burnt out. We cannot expect too much from them. The principal didn’t even address my kid or any type of concern from my kid who was also a straight a student. The email solely defended the teacher. It was unbelievable. [/quote]
