(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have a child who attends this school and has had a drop in grades, but i didn't learn anything till progress reports came out. DON'T THE TEACHERS TRY AND REACH THE PARENTS WHEN THEY SEE A CHILD IS STRUGGLING OR FAILING THEIR CLASS? WHAT'S WRONG WITH OUR SYSTEM? LAZINESS. I know teachers have to work with a lot of students but come on now. if a student is getting an F, shouldn't the parent be advised and try to set up a plan of action to help child succeed? I guess this is one child left behind. I will be emailing my friend who works at the white house. NO CHILD SHOULD BE LEFT BEHIND!
