Case: Teacher's Kid
You have student in your class whose mother is a teacher in your school system. This student is very difficult in class and refuses to do any work. The student has the attitude that because his mother is a teacher, he is going to pass no matter what. His mother frequently comes to the school for meetings with her child's teachers asking them to do whatever they can to help him. You continue to offer help as far as tutoring, offering to take late assignments, extra credit assignments, yet the student continues to just do the minimum. The student brings his grade up to almost passing, by the end of the semester. On one of the last days of school, you ask students to write a reflection about the class, this student writes that he didn't do anything in the class all semester, and knew he was going to pass regardless because its always been that way for him. Do you give him the grade he earned, or give him that extra point or two to pass him along to avoid conflict?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You should definitely give him the grade he earned and show the reflection to his mom and let his future teachers know of this problem. |

| Comments: This is not what I would do. I agree that the reflection should be shown to this students parent, but I strongly disagree that any teacher should discuss the situation with any of their future teachers. |
