Another reminder, the IAS suggests that there shouldn't be a mad rush of people asking because no parent, who has a child that is properly challenged is going to ask for harder work to watch their kid fail. I had to explain this to them as well but we are also in a place that people feel entitled
Don't worry, like I said, generic answer is best, and answer everyone the same. There will soon be nothing to discuss because no one knows how or why! Prpping DC what to say is extremely helpful too! Shoulder shrug, because the principal told me to. if they say but Why? Shrug and say, I don't know and leave it at that
Worked like a charm for us!
