[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lack of communication...and I don't even mean when there is a problem.  We had a teacher who dropped the ball on several things one year with just my child.  Have a discussion with me and admit the mistake.

Failure to ensure that what is important to a child is followed through.

Failure to allow equal volunteering for important tasks...i.e. our school allows parents to come in a read to the kindergarten class.  When my son was in kindergarten, there were 29 kids but only 15 spots available to do this.

Failure to ensure that the county's max field trips are used per year per class.  (Even a quick cheap one to somewhere close by versus only one).

Failure to let parents know about important events that they can attend in sufficient enough advance time (class parties that parents are invited to, ceremonies, etc.)

Failure to assign homework of a substantive and regular nature starting early on (and I don't mean just 'read tonight').

Failure to teach cursive and math facts by rote memory early on + spelling lists.

Failure to enrich those that need the enrichment on a regular basis.  [b]I used to teach so I know how easy this truly is - it is NOT hard at all.[/b][/quote]

used to . . .

Effective teachers tend to stay less than 7 years.    :!: [/quote]
