  Case: My Son's Teacher
I have a 3 year old son in Pre-K. When I first enrolled him in this school everything seemed fined. He liked his teacher and started gaining a lot of friends. One day while I was visiting his class I noticed that his teacher was ignoring a white student sitting in the back of the classroom. I didn't say anything because I assumed he was in time out. As time passed she kept ignoring him. Whenever he wanted to participate with the class she just smiled and said nothing. Story time she made him sit in the back. He's already the only white male in the class, there's a female but she treats her the same. I'm not sure why she treats him like this but I know this isn't right. I don't want to cause any problems but I cannot sit back and continue to let her treat that innocent boy that way. What can I do to help him?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The situation you describe sounds sad, yet I would proceed with caution. I wouldn't talk to the teacher, but bring up my concern to the administration. Speaking to the teacher seems as if your questioning her classroom management and might negatively be reflected upon your child. It has been my experience; the school administration is the individuals that can change the negative learning environment the quickest in a VPK classroom.
