As a parent, it really bugs me when teachers don't ask kids for their homework and don't tell them it's missing, and then accuse them of being "late" weeks later.

As a teacher, I can't believe that you believed that one out of your DC.[/quote]

As a teacher, you should catch up on your late paperwork and Canvas reporting instead of posting on DCUM. [/quote]

DP. If it makes you happy, I worked 4 hours already today (Christmas Eve) and I’ll certainly work tomorrow.

So there you have it: I’m spending my entire break doing all the work I don’t have time to do at school.

I’d be happier if you kept up with it earlier so we’d know. 
Happy now? [/quote][/quote]

Here’s what you need to know:

I already work 60 hours a week, and I can’t keep up because the workload is so unreasonable. I refuse to go over 60, because (at some point) I feel I should be able to take care of my own family.

I use every holiday to catch up. I use every summer to get ahead.

This is the workload of a conscientious, dedicated teacher. We are the ones working with few resources to support your children.

Most teachers do very little to support individual students, maybe just a few of your favorites.  Do more assignments online with autograding.  [/quote]

You are wrong. You clearly have no idea what it means to teach. So just STFU.[/quote]

You shouldn't be a teacher with that attitude.  Very little is done in MS and HS.  I can see the teachers who try.  We have several teachers this year who have missed weeks, and its a huge problem in HS with AP classes and classes that have state required tests with no textbooks to work with them at home.[/quote]

You know that lack of textbooks is not a teacher issue.  And, the inability of MCPS to fill slots for teachers who need leave is not a teacher issue.  Not sure why you are attacking this teacher about these issues.

I don’t know whether it is luck or what, but all of my kids had great teachers and support at school - including my kid with special needs who was really difficult from day one until the day he graduated.  And I am very thankful.  [/quote]

Some classes have textbooks that teachers give if you ask, they just choose not to use them.  You are lucky if you had great teachers and support, as we haven't seen any support and a few great teachers, most are meh, some are just bad.  You are lucky yours show up and teach.[/quote]

Hey bitter, angry parent, quit blaming teachers. You are breeding bitter, angry children.[/quote]
