Case: The Demanding Parent
You, a high school history teacher, had a student in your class who would have benefited more from a remedial class. But her parents insisted on placing her in his class. Because the student felt pressured to live up to her parents' expectations, she plagiarized a homework paper. The student's parents seems to be more concerned with her grades than with the knowledge and skills she attained in school. How would you resolve this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would have a conference with the parents and explain to them that what their child is doing is not acceptable. I would suggests that the child be moved back to a remedial class as her grades and performance in the class are not showing the results anyone desires. I would provide proof to back my claim and would explain that the grade does not always correlate to the knowledge the student acquired. However, in this situation, it appears that the grade does, in fact, correlate to her knowledge of the material. I would explain to the parents that I want to see their child do the best she possibly can, but with her placement, the expectations set are too hard for her to attain. I would work with the parents hand in hand to promote a resolution to the problem, and would vow to do my best to see their daughter succeed. I would thank them for coming in, and express to them that they may come by anytime to talk if need be. |
