Case: Student calls home with a complaint
You are a middle school teacher. Kelly Illalot, a very capable, yet unmotivated girl, misses your class a lot, and therefore, has a low grade. She often goes to the sick room to rest, and complains of everything from headaches to menstrual cramps. Her parents come and get her every time she calls home with a complaint. How would you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would contact the student's parents and attempt to resolve the issue by asking if Kelly has seen a doctor recently or if she has any medical conditions that the school is unaware of. I would inform the parents that I am concerned for Kelly's success and inform them that each time she leaves the classroom or goes home she is falling further behind in her academics. Maybe there is a reason why the parents are so quick to pick up their child that the teacher will not be aware of until the parents are contacted. |

| Comments: I wou;d be very careful asking a parent if a child has any medical conditions, this could be taken the wrong way. |
