Case: Stalker student
A student receives an "F" on a test. He protests his grade and is adamant about your changing his grade or allowing him to re-take the exam. You stand firm on your position and tell him that there are no make-ups or extra credit. His tone becomes increasingly aggressive. He calls you, he emails you, and he waits for you after class. As a teacher, what is the best way to handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would begin by talking to the parents of the student and explain the policies that have been set and why the grade can not be changed. If this does not work i will then speak to an administrator or principle about the issue. |

Comments: While I believe that if the behavior persists the parents should be informed of his behavior, I think that the student - and other school authorities if it seems to be dangerous enough to need it - should be spoken to first. |

Comments: I do not think this is the best solution. Although you do want to contact the parents and make them aware of the situation, the first thing you should do is talk to your administration and have them present when having a conference with the parents. |
