[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 233040, member: 2211"] [FONT=Century Gothic][SIZE=3][COLOR=indigo]I was thinking about this briefly last night and then told H that I wasn't so sure she's been going to classes. He suggested I call the teacher. I did, but she wasn't there and I highly doubt she'd discuss difficult child/class with me anyway (nevermind the fact that I paid all of the tuition). Anyway, I saw her book bag and went through it just for a look-see. I saw papers that can prove she's been to every class except two. There was a note from her teacher telling her she had to make up those hours - I don't know if she ever did. I also saw her weekly classwork and exams and list of volunteers who she stuck for the classes. She was there. Most of her test scores were passing - about 2/3 and the other third were failing.
