[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 323745, member: 3444"] difficult child 2 failed language arts last quarter. Mostly it was due to late assignments and poor time management/organization, not necessarily inferior work. This particular teacher has been a little less than flexible about timeliness with him, despite an IEP that says he can be given extra time to finish assignments. He's in a critical skills class that is SUPPOSED to be helping him ensure that all his assignments are written in his planner each day and that he has all his materials before he heads for home. Needless to say, I feel like the Special Education teacher and the language arts teacher are dropping the ball with difficult child 2. So today, I get this email from the Special Education teacher: [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial]:hammer:[/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial]Uh, ya think?[/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial]I know for a FACT that Student W's parents had an IEP meeting at school this morning to discuss his current academic struggles.
