Re: She made me do it

[Guest guest]

I am so sorry you are having such a rough time!!! You have been very quite

lately. I don't understand how she could possibly come home with hardly

anything. You can talk to us. Even if I have no experience with schooling

(yet) I'll be behind you to kick this teacher in the butt

Hugs to you - sounds like you need it!

They discluded her from the Valentine's party??? OMG I would hit the roof if

She made me do it

And the stupid teacher saga continues..............................

She sent me a note today telling me she is sending me a note tomorrow

(yeah, that's what I said too) about Cassie's behavior today.

But that's not the worst of it. Do you know that child came home

today with not ONE piece of Valentine candy or any indication that it

was even Valentine's Day---with the exception of about 3 valentines

in a paper clip dropped in her bookbag. She kept asking about candy

and a party. My guess is the teacher used it as some form of

punishment or something. For what other reason would she come home

with NOTHING? She was a little upset but her dad is bringing her a

box of candy from work tonight.

These 2 things together are just IT. As in I have had IT. Tonight

I am filling out the notice of intent. Removing her as soon as I get

the card back.

I don't know what " behavior " the teacher is talking about and at

this point I do not care. Whatever it is the teacher is clearly the

cause of it and this is going to stop. Now.

Her idiotic games are stressing me to an unbelievable degree. I

plunge into a depressed, frustrated state every time I see a note in

her bookbag. It's one of the reasons I haven't been as active

lately. I can't remember if I told you guys about the teacher

starting up again or not. Evidently that's how nutty she's making

me. I can only imagine what it must be like for Cassie--who has begun

to ask to stay home.

Sorry for the length. I just now noticed it. But I at least

know you understand.

BTW I took that paper clip and put it through several of the pages

Kerri, I have been mad for about 8 hours now. That is exactly

what I think happened. That class always has a Valentine's party.

Cassie has always come home with candy, valentine cups or pencils you

know, little things like that. But today------nothing. Well except

for the 3. I have no idea what that woman is talking about as far as

the behavior, but that is just too much. But with this teacher it

would not be surprising. I don't know what else to think.

Cinnamon

[Guest guest]

This is ridiculous..my kids came home with a ton of

goodies..I can't believe Cassie's class didn't have

anything.

Can you call the principal..since you aren't going to

get anyplace with this teacher..she wrote you a note

to say she's sending you another note..now I've heard

everything!

Sorry you and Cassie are going through this!

Hugs,

Cassie always has too, Mimi. That's why I'm thinking this. That

woman should be making slurpees at a 7-11, not teaching children. I

have a feeling I'm still going to be as mad in the morning about

this. There was just something different this time around. I have to

do it now. Or as long as it takes the card. This is going to stop.

The school has a new principal this year gung ho, rah-rah-rah " we

are the perfect school " type. If they still had the same one, that

would work. You could talk to him. But this woman thinks the school

and its staff can do no wrong.

That note about the note was about the strangest thing I've ever

heard myself. Thanks Mimi. I don't know what I'd do without you all.

Thanks . That woman has made just waking up in the morning a

miserable dreaded experience. Apparently it's not much better for

Cassie either. She's started asking to stay home. And we've been

careful to not say anything about the school or the teacher in front

of her. So she's not influenced by that.

I hope your school experience will be better. I'm always so

envious of the people who have actually had a pleasant experience

with the school.

If things go right, it should be around mid-March. At this point I

can't get her out of there soon enough. I feel guilty every time I

put her on that bus.

Hi Sue. Yep. I decided there is no choice but to start the

homeschooling early. The only thing standing in the way right now is

the paperwork. I'm not sure of everything involved. I had planned on

getting all these small details worked out by summer. Surprise. I

know I have to hurry. NC deadline is rushing toward me. To start it

will only be around mid-March through May and then start the new year

back up in August. But I see no alternative. I don't know what that

womans problem is, but she needs to get help for it.

Thanks.

[Guest guest]

Cinnamon,

I homeschooled A.G. for awhile and I found that the easiest part was

the paperwork to get started.

I don't know how it works there, but here in Florida all I had to do

was to call the homeschooling office and have them send me the forms

to fill in (there were only 2 short ones), tell A.G.'s school that I

intended to homeschool him, and make sure any books or materials that

belonged to the school were returned to them.

I even had a grace period of 30 days between the time I pulled him

out of the school and the date the homeschooling office recieved the

forms, so I was able to pull him out right away and wait for the

forms to show up afterwards.

Call your school district's admin offices. They should be able to

give you the # to talk to someone in homeschooling. You may be

happily suprised.

Hope it goes as well for you!

Hi Cinnamon,I'm so sorry that you and Cassie are having such a hard

time .I can't believe she sent a letter to tell you that she was

going to send you a letter *SHEESH* .It sounds like she couldn't

instruct a dog to bark far less bring out the potential of the kids

in her class!!! Could you arrange a meeting with her ,the principal

and maybe a representative from the education dept and find out

exactly WHAT THIS WOMAN'S PROBLEM IS ?????

Hugs to you and Cassie

All I know for sure is I have to send the Letter of Intent with my

HS transcript and then wait for the " orange card " (up to 4 weeks).

Not sure of any paperwork after that. We don't get a grace period

here--as a matter of fact they caution not to remove the child from

school until you get that card. My plan is to get the LOI in the

mail today. I wanted dh to send it priority at the p.o. But he

stared saying he didn't know where the p.o. is-he only gets 1 hr. for

lunch-blah blah blah. I told him just go-go to work and I'll have

something figured out by lunchtime. The only thing I've come up with

so far is something like Mailboxes, Etc. since the p.o. will be

closed the weekend. I want that letter THERE Monday morning. I'm

sure they probably have something similar to put a rush on it. And

when I get her out of there, I hope to never lay eyes on that woman

again.

Thanks everybody for understanding.

Sorry to hear that it sounds like the crap is still going on for Cassie. I

think you should try to casually find out why Cassie only had 3 Valentines, then

jump all over them if your suspicions are right.

I'm assuming your letter of intent is referring to pulling her out of school and

home schooling her? Or are you going to fight for a different placement for her

away from this school?

I hope you can work things out. Give her a hug for me!

cinnamon,

I dont blame you for doing this, she sounds like she is upset because

Cassie isnt that fond of her or isnt doing her best with this

teacher. It sounds like the typical blame the child, and hand out

inappropriate punishments. I mean excluding a kid with social issues

from a holdiday party is detrimental. What is she supposing to be

teaching her by this. Id like to know what the behavior is too,

probably a response to this womans own negative behavior.

Thea, I think that has a lot to do with it. This teacher acted

like she LOVED Cassie until she figured out that Cass is autistic.

Somehow I think she had it in her head that she was going to " cure "

Cassie and when that didn't happen, Cassie became one of " THESE

kids " (as she had once put it)

I am really really angry at the thought that Cassie may have been

excluded from a class party. And I wonder what went through her mind

and how she felt. I will say this--it got my attention. I told dh

who had been insisting we wait until fall to start (WE?) that this is

the final straw. Cassie is just not going to have to keep enduring

whatever it is that woman dishes out. Thanks for listening to my

blabbing.

OH YEAH! We'd be at the school this morning, and she'd be in a

Cinnamon-

I HATE THIS. ....and I am truly feeling very bad feelings toward this

teacher who I don't even know.

A friend of mine just went through the same situation as you... It was a

horrible story and NO ONE in adminstration would do ANYTHING about it.

She got a zone variance and moved her child to a new school where she is

doing very, very well.

I think you are doing THE best thing for Cassie. Removing her from an

obviously harmful situation. Once that's done, then you can decide if you

want to persue the issue further with the school system...

I'd love to give this woman a piece of my mind.....

Poor Cassie. Our kids may be socially odd, etc - but they have feelings, and

this teacher is obviously hurting poor Cassie's.

I wish you a smooth transition to homeschooling. I can't wait to hear about how

well Cassie does at home with you, and totally admire you for being able and

willing to homeschool!

What kind of insanity is that? Oh, I am so sorry that you are still having

so much trouble. I think that you are right, and the best thing for her is

to take her out of that situation. I can't believe they would keep a kid

from joining in a party! Oh, I would be all over everybody's butts if that

happened. Hopefully you can get Cassie out of there very, very soon!
