  Case: The Invisible Parent
Ms. Bishop has a parent that is virtually non-existent when they receive phone calls, emails, and letters about their child's progress or disciplinary issues. However, when deficiencies and report cards go home and their child has a poor grade the parent suddenly appears and makes a grand appearance ranting and raving about their child. How does Ms. Bishop get this parent on board at all times in a school where there really is no parental involvement?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It is obviously in your best interest of the well being and progress of the student, and it appears that when the student does badly on assignments it suddenly becomes the parents interest. I would remind the parent nicely but firm that you both have the same desire for the student. Explain to the parent that they need to be checking the child's progress and explain how with the online school grade check website.
