I know how you feel.

It sounds like they are trying to develop an understanding of the situation-- the teacher doesn't know yet what to do. You are going to have to be a master educator in helping them know what you know.

This is a marathon, not a sprint. If you can settle some basic things in this first meeting (he can and needs to check out what he wants to read; discipline guidelines that must be followed)-- know that there will always be fine-tuning in subsequent meetings. If people have good will, they learn.

If they don't, you'll know. But I would not assume that going in.

Good luck today.
