Funny, Dude. My son and I were sifting through some of his old papers and found that the only teacher who ever consistently read & criticized his work was the amazing teacher he had in 5th grade.

If his 9th grade teacher put half that effort into her responses, I'd be happy.

This late in the year, I'm not too keen on making waves as I'd hate for him to get a vindictive grade when it might be too late for him to recover his grade. This might also happen to be the teacher who didn't understand weighted grading very well, which could really make a mess of things.

I am waiting to hear back from the counselor again -- all you peoples's responses made me realize that I wasn't nuts.

Thanks to all you all again.
