[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 63442"] Just want to add my 2 cents. This year difficult child is going to have a brand new teacher. (8th grade). The three houses for 8th grade two will have resource teachers. (spec. ed teachers) The houses basically consist of about 150 - 175 students per house. Each house has specific academic teachers. The kids are broken down into groups of about 25 and go to the different classes as different times, but stay within their "house". The Special Education. or resource teacher is not in all classes. (difficult child is in regular ed. classes). Both 8th grade resource teachers are new. It really scares me. I am so afraid they will be influenced by the teachers, or other staff memebers who know difficult child. He carries a reputation even though it is not what it appears to be. Many, so many, incidents were (in my opinion) delibertly done to set him off. I hope difficult child gets a fresh start. We / he have been working so hard on past issues I really want him to have a fresh start without any preconcieved opinions about him. Principal suggested I meet with the new teacher. I am afraid if I do so it may look or give the new teacher a negative opinion before they even meet him. So, you as a teacher, would you want to meet with parents prior to the school year? And what is it you would like to hear about? We have had two years of negative experience at middle school. This is his last year and am really praying for a better year. [/QUOTE]
