OK, I just had the Longest SST ever! 2 and a half hours!! (for you non -teachers~ student study team, meeting with principal, teachers, parent, etc...) Anyway, this was on the little guy that his mom reamed me in Dec. And then her son was quickly moved into another class, thank you very much, cuz I was so done with her! She was OK throughout the meeting, until the last few minutes when of course she had to bring up the 'incident' of that day. OK, let me tell you how she saw this; "she came into my room and found her 'precious' crying while the rest of the class was eating lunch and I wouldn't let him eat lunch" WOW, that sure sounds like something I would do, huh???? After she gave her account of the 'incident' I was asked what really happened. Well, she was never IN my room and she didn't see her little guy until HE decided he wanted to go get lunch. AT which time he saw mommy and jetted to her instead of going to the end of the line with his class for lunch, which they had just left for! I told them he was never in trouble and was sitting in the back at his own free will. She apologized and admitted that she 'jumped' to conclusions and just saw her little boy crying while the rest of the class was going to lunch. My VP said it was too bad she felt so bad for so long on a miscommunication. Whatever, I am over it, and I think she may be too. She still got really angry at the 'new teacher' cuz she doesn't want him on a behavior contract. Sorry lady! We have 20 kids to control, yours cannot just do as he pleases like he does at home! How lame is that? You know~ kids are great, it's the parents of some of these little guys that makes ya wonder! OH, and the 'cutie' I have now~~he is spitting in my students faces, so nice!! And I have yet another one that is on a behavior contract because he cannot shut his mouth or sit still. He came in yesterday looking like he had about 1 hour sleep. He looked terrible, big ol' bags and circles around his eyes. I asked him what time he went to bed, and he said 8. I said those aren't 8:00 eyes. More like midnight eyes! Boy, I tell ya, what do these parents think??? I just don't get it. I just want to take them home with me and take care of them. (Not so much spitting boy though). Thanks for letting me share!!! Teachers rule!!!!!!!!
