  Case: My Son's Teacher
I have a 3 year old son in Pre-K. When I first enrolled him in this school everything seemed fined. He liked his teacher and started gaining a lot of friends. One day while I was visiting his class I noticed that his teacher was ignoring a white student sitting in the back of the classroom. I didn't say anything because I assumed he was in time out. As time passed she kept ignoring him. Whenever he wanted to participate with the class she just smiled and said nothing. Story time she made him sit in the back. He's already the only white male in the class, there's a female but she treats her the same. I'm not sure why she treats him like this but I know this isn't right. I don't want to cause any problems but I cannot sit back and continue to let her treat that innocent boy that way. What can I do to help him?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I do agree with you that it isn't right for a teacher to ignore the student and always shunning him, especially when he wants to participate. I think you should talk to the principle on what you have observed in the classroom, so he/she can observe and solve the problem. I don't think you should talk to the teacher personally because that may cause some problems for you and your son. You did the right thing by not saying anything, but you should bring this issue to the principle so they can handle it.
