So, difficult child is on homebound services. He has a teacher come in on Tues and Thurs for only two hours a day. She will only work with him on 5 out of 8 classes. That's because these 3 classes are not "core" classes. Therefore, guess who has to help difficult child with the other 3 in order for him to get credit for this last grading period (otherwise he fails the whole semester)?? :wink: Yep, dear ole mom. What are those classes, let's see two computer classes...nope can't help there but difficult child doesn't have a problem with one of them (he's pretty good at this computer stuff) and the other computer teacher I can't get to return my calls, emails,and I've even had other teachers go tell this one that I need to talk with him. I'm getting pretty mad about it so will have to go higher up the ladder... :nonono:
As for the third teacher...Spanish...can we say I don't speak Spanish? It took us 3 weeks to get 7 pages done in his workbook because Mom had to study and learn it first (while working and during all the other numerous stuff I do around here). We finally finished it last night and informed the Spanish teacher. Guess what, difficult child is going to have to take the final which is next week as well as more work!. I had to clue the teacher in on the fact that difficult child will not be back to school until January possibly and can only do a little at a time. I'm waiting to hear back from her before I figure out what to do next.
Thanks for letting me vent. Somethings never change in the life of a difficult child and school.
