[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 98533, member: 1233"] Our teachers are REQUIRED by district policy to post assignments and general topics/areas of study for each subject. Often out teachers don't because they think it will teach the kids some responsibility to keep track of lessons with no supports. BUT it is district policy for all schools. Even kdg teachers are required, so when a teacher says she will not, we use the confused look. Say we were told by the Board of Ed it was policy, has it been changed? Then I ask the principal if it has been changed. If nothing is updated, I call the Superintendent of Schools. Our Middle School teachers have made a huge fuss about this, but even the university here has assignments posted on line as a Professional Duty. So the teachers here pretty much comply now. At least the ones my friends have dealt with. Sorry your son is doing this. It isn't any consolation, but not turning in assignments is "cool" somehow in many schools. Drives people nuts (teachers and parents) but it is the attitude of many kids. Susie [/QUOTE]
