[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bathroom thing is the perfect example of parents being out of touch. They know their own single sweet child at home, and have no concept of thousands of teens in a building, many of whom are actively seeking to get out of doing work by wandering the halls, vaping, and messing around. These are the same parents who are furious when bathrooms are closed because kids have torn fixtures off the walls and clogged toilets with paper towels. Teachers live and teach in the real world. Trust them to tell you what it’s like.[/quote]

We know and [b]if you have an issue with our kids, we expect you to reach out or if we reach out respond and tell us the truth. [/b] We cannot do anything if we don't know about it.  Our school discipline got more lax this year as the admin refuses to stand up to the kids.  Blame them, not us.  Admin needs to be monitoring the hall or hire more security.  And, have consequences.  Kids should not be allowed to leave campus because admin doesn't care.  Kids should not be allowed uber delivery all day long either.[/quote]

Some teachers think if they couldn't get a reply from Juan's father, they think all parents aren't responsive. It's true that some kids will put their own phone number or email under their parents' info. But majority of families will want to hear from their kid's teachers than not hear from them. If Larlo is misusing bathroom pass during your class, tell Larlo's parents![/quote]

They can get the parents email or phone through MCPS.[/quote]

Some [i]students[/i] will complete the forms for their parents, writing their own email address instead of their parents' email address. When Mrs. Jones emails Larlo's parents, she doesnt get a reply because Larlo's parents never received that email message from Mrs. Jones, Larlo checks or doesn't check "their" email account[/quote]
