Ack! In a nutshell, at pick up today, the principal said that THEY know what's best for DS7 and he should repeat 3 years of math. That way he "will learn" not to mistake addition and subtraction anymore. And he will also learn to write out all 3 methods of Everyday Math multiplication - and stop doing one method in his head. 3 years!

I lost it. No, I didn't yell. I simply stated that I refuse to allow my son to repeat any years of math education. I stated that I will send in the appropriate work for him tomorrow and he is to work on that during math time and nothing else.

Did I just shoot myself in the foot?
