She will flat out refuse to do work and will not listen to instructions given to her. When warned or given consequences, she simply replies with "I don't care." and it doesn't seem like she does, to be honest. We've tried taking away certain privileges, as well as lunch detentions and written referrals. What would you suggest to help deal with this student? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) You could set up a reward system that would eventually give her a break from the tasks that she is trying to avoid. Also, you should be very firm and do what you say you are going to do with no backing down.
