ok, so i am in a tough spot.
some of you might remember that at the beginning of the school year i voiced some concern about Cullans Teacher. At the advice of a couple different people I decided to give it sometime and see how the first quarter played out. I thought, I should give her the benefit of the doubt. Well now the first quarter is almost over and I am even more unhappy. I just don't know what to do. Having worked in schools, I know people say that children do not get singled out, but that is just not true. I have heard teachers talk if a child has a parent that complains or causes problems for the teacher. I know how it works. However, Cullan's teacher is just bugging me. There are two first grade classes in his school. The other first grade class gets a weekly letter to the parents saying what they are working on. They have a class website. The kids come home with reading, math and spelling homework. Our class has had zero parent teacher communication. Our kids don't ever come home with reading or math homework. In fact it was almost a month into school before we even got a spelling list. I am at a loss. I don't know what to do. There is no communication, even when emailed. It takes her usually up to a week to respond. I just don't want Cullan to suffer, educationally, because of a teacher that does not have her stuff together and does not seem to really enjoy children all that much.

I would be a bit concerned too. Can you go and sit in the class sometime and see how things are run? Maybe things at school are fine, but his teacher just isn't big into homework. Sam's teacher doesn't send home parent letters either, but his teacher last year did. He does have homework though.
