My kids are in a private school, last year we got new Principal, the guy has no experience, zero. Though everybody says, including my kids, that he is an excellent teacher, I think that is why they promoted him from within.
The issue at hand is bathroom policy; every other day one of my kids comes and complains that the teacher would not allow them to go to the bathroom during the class.
The two younger ones I can deal with, the older one, she is 12, is having really hard time with her teacher. Teacher was hired in the middle of the year after the previous one quit. This one is a story in itself, I cannot stand her. Neither does my kid. Even though I try to tell my daughter to listen and do what teacher says she is having hard time, she thinks the teacher is out to get her. I guess the policy in the school is that class should start and after 15 minutes if everybody settled down the girls can raise the hand and ask to be excused. To me it is stupid, if somebody needs to go, somebody needs to go, no matter if it is one minute into the class. A side note, the class starts at 1:15, they do not have bathroom break before, not enough stoles in the bathroom to accommodate the whole school.
My wife told my daughter she simply should get up and go in case like this. I am kind of not sure about that. Yesterday my daughter asked to go to the bathroom and she was told that she cannot, she made the face of course, but set in her seat. Teacher then makes a comment: “stop the theatrics”. Ok, if she said wait 5-10 minutes, let’s settled down, let’s start working, you know something like this, I would be ok with it, but outright be so rude, that is disgusting in my opinion. I went to talk to the principal today, he of course takes teachers side, moron. I got so mad I told him that next time it happens I will call board of education and claim child abuse. He says “go ahead”. And that I listen to only my child story. Ok, fine I want the meeting with the teacher then. Well, meeting is today at 4:15 after school.
Please give me your suggestions, criticism, options, tell me what I should be saying, and tell me if I am wrong or right. I need to hear everything please.
