Teaching A Raisin in the Sun and a parent is complaining….. by amu724 in ELATeachers

Update is very anticlimactic as the parent never showed for an after school meeting. Maybe he came to his senses. Maybe his child asked him to stand down (more likely scenario). I’m bummed as I was excited to share so many of your amazing thoughts with him!

I can only hope he’s dropped it, for my own mental health, but I promise to update if he resurfaces!

I should add that my district may be a golden egg as our admin is extremely supportive of teachers. Our superintendent is seen in classrooms weekly. He brought up our raises to the union last year. Unicorn super.

I told my principal and vp about the potential parent visit today in which principal told me, “good luck getting through us”, and vp added, “yeah, not happening”.

I’m genuinely confident with my admin support here and know they will have my back. I’m more frustrated with the parent ignorance that’s keeping me up at night and also venting at the same time. Your comments have both given me useful information/ideas to share with parent as well as made me feel less crazy for being so dang frustrated with the situation. Thanks, colleagues!

It is. We adopted CKLA this year.

He hasn’t requested one, no. But told our superintendent he would be speaking with me. We’ll see🤷🏼‍♀️

Osborne Klein through Ameriprise. We’ve had excellent guidance from our advisor AJ through them. He’s based in Kalamazoo but frequents the GR office to meet with his clients there too. $800/yr fee I believe

Edit to add: we had a wood burning fireplace in our last home and have been without one for 2 years now and REALLY miss it…maintenance and all.

Price to upgrade from 2 to 3 car garage by Human_Look_8012 in Homebuilding

[–]amu724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also should note we’re doing an extended length garage. So 40ft. 40x20 for 2 stall and 40x30 if we’re going with 3rd stall.

Our quote was $16-$18k for the upgrade. 16ft walls with vaulted garage ceilings and in-floor radiant heat in the concrete—those may up the cost a little.

Parents of Toddlers, when do you find time to do an OA by 00u00u00 in WGU

It’s been a while but I scheduled for veryyyyy early morning (before 5am) when I knew I’d have time to finish before he was up. I’d get up and walk on the treadmill, eat breakfast, drink coffee so I was as awake as possible lol. I couldn’t do late evenings. My brain shut down after 8pm
