After a disastrous first semester, DS's counselor moved him to another English Honors class. DS16 really, really likes the teacher, picked out a book for free read based on Teacher's rec and they had some conversations about it. All is good, right? A good teacher can make all the difference.
Unless...
A student teacher takes over about 5 weeks in. And is very much like the first semester teacher. Aargh. So, do I ream out the counselor for setting this up?
Just saw this thread. I think I was out of town. Yes, definatly talk with the counselor about this and tell her how displeased you are with the situation.
Exactly this type of things has been happening this year for my DS. Counselor promised she picked out a good English teacher for DS for this year. I wasn't impressed by her but it didn't matter she went on maternity leave after two months, she still isn't back. We are on our second 'long term' sub. First long term sub was better than the teacher, second long term sub isn't so good.
