Case: New teacher, New school
A fairly novice teacher, teaching 2 years, moves to a new state and maintains a job over a phone interview.
This teacher a young middle class female is placed in a school with a high African American student body. The students at this school come from homes with one parent. There are cases of drug use in the house, boyfriends in and out of the home and very absent parents when it came to the school. When the mothers did come to the school it was usually a hostile situation and most of the time the parent was yelling at this young teacher.
The teacher knew that it was not at all the fault of the child and wanted to send a message to the parents that she wanted to partner with the parents for the sake of their shared student. How would the teacher reach that goal?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that it is awesome that the teacher wants to help, but the teacher needs to be aware of her surroundings and know policies to keep herself safe. She could potentially bring up after school programs, tutoring, and parent teacher conferences. Anything to help the student! |

Comments: I think this case is more about how the parents are reacting to her coming into a new school and not being used to it. |

Comments: Yes, teachers should always feel safe, but they should also try to help the student and work with parents. Pawning the student off on afterschool programs should only be considered if absolutely needed, not just for a disgruntled parent or student. |
