Long/ middle school problem

November 19, 2005

Well I kinda lost it with the Principal at 's school. She is 12 in 7th

grade has asthma and CMT. For some reason they gave her a C in P.E. How the

heck can a person get a C in modified P.E??

This is the school I just took Adam out of 2 weeks ago. Just before he left I

had words with the same P.E teacher over her miss-treatment of Adam.

So goes to P.E when she can do what ever the activity is other than that

a few super nice teachers allow her to grade papers in their classrooms.

She got in the car all upset Friday. I found out she had a C, grabbed that

report card and marched into the Principal's office. (It is a temporary office

in a trailer). I took a few deep breaths and showed him the report card. He was

surprised too. Then I told him I was at my maximum stress levels and I couldn't

take much more. I told him that 2 weeks ago had to tell this teacher

that she and Adam both had modified P.E. The Principal told me not to believe

what the kids say. I told him that I called the teacher to check out 's

story and she even told me that after she talked to she had

to look in file to see if anything was in writing.

Ok so yeah kids get the story wrong but in this case was right on. The

same teacher gave 2 demerits for being late to class. That also made me

mad. I thought for sure she was aloud extra passing time because of her CMT. I

have to look at her health care plan to be certain. If it's not there, it will

be on Monday.

This is the part I feel bad about. I told the Principal that I had been B.Sed by

this teacher and that my radar has never let me down. I tried to explain CMT to

her and I got yes yes yes. I could tell she was B.S-ing me because she didn't

ask any questions, her tone never changed and she said he didn't have lunch

detention when he did.

Ok So I say all this in an office with very thin walls. Basically I blew off

steam. The Principal kept the report card and said he was glad to have something

in concrete. I walked out of the office and

there was the teacher. She must have heard everything because her face was red

she looked sick and she wouldn't smile back at me. Why did I smile at her you

ask?

Because I didn't know it was her until I passed her. I have only seen her 1

time. So now I feel bad because I blew off steam, smiled at her like I was two

faced and I judged her to her boss. I don't even know er. I am happy that I

stuck up for my daughter. Should I apologize?
