DS16 had a teacher like that for Chemistry last year. She was known for being disorganized. After DS has a terrible first quarter, he was put on a 'contract' that was as much to keep the teacher accountable as it was to teach my son how to work with her. (The contract is something fairly standard for kids who look like they might be failing a class.) This eventually meant he figured out how to work with her. The school knows about this problem, other students complain but there isn't much the school can do about it. And this teacher mostly complied with the contract despite her horrible disorganization.
