Case: When parents want control
A student in a high school gifted class has teetered between passing and not passing all year long. Most of his assignments are turned in late and done haphazardly. In a teacher/parent conference, the parents want to take complete control over the situation and ask that all assignments and due dates be emailed to them regularly so that they can make sure their son completes them. Little to no accountability is being placed on the teen. Do you sit idly by and go with their requests, or do you suggest a way to place some of the responsibility on the student?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have had this happen numerous times with my freshmen, whose parents are used to daily emails from middle school teachers. I explained to the parents that the student is in high school and will be held accountable for themselves. I also told the parent that the student received an agenda at the beginning of the school year to keep track of assignments and due dates. I also recommend that parents sign up for Remind 101 to receive text updates. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. The students need to learn to be more independent to help them when they graduate. The parents can look at the students agenda if they need to help their child. |

Comments: I agree. Asking you to take the time to send home all assignments and due dates to their parents as well as give them to the student is a bit much to be doing in high school. The student should be pushed towards self sufficiency planning, like an agenda. |
