Unfiltered Story #32674

I am a fifth grade teacher. One of my students has been enrolled with us for 60 days, and has been absent for 30 of them.

The student’s grades are poor, and I had to make a phone call to the parent.

The parent had the gall to ask me “what can I do to bring her grades up?”

In case you didn’t know, there is a connection between actually coming to school and getting good grades.
