Case: The "But He Can't Fail" Parent
You are a freshman World History teacher, and one of your students has spent an entire school year actively refusing to do his work. You've spoken with his parents at multiple conferences with an administrator present, and sent weekly updates via email to the parents regarding the student's behavior and academic progress. With two weeks left in the school year, you get an email from the mother demanding that all the assignments (even the ones from August) be given to the student so that he may turn them in for a late grade and pass the class. Your school has a policy on late work, and once the midterm mark has passed, students cannot turn in work from the previous semester. How do you respond to the parent?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Make sure you have all of your parent contact documented. Administration is sometimes only willing to back us up when we have proof of parent contact and attempts to get in touch with them in regards to missing work like this. |
