What do you do about the teacher's at a school who don't do their jobs?

Please do talk to the teacher first, so you will have gone through steps.  Principals may ignore you if you haven't at least spoken with the teacher.  Please be as diplomatic as possible so you don't get labeled as a problem parent and then ignored.  Then, very soon, take your concern to the principal.  He/she will probably want a meeting with you and the teacher.  Come with documentation, but be sure to continue to be diplomatic.  Make appointments to observe your daughter (not the teacher) in class.  Be sure to keep every piece of paper you have that might show incompetance.  For all you know, the principal and school board are already working on getting rid of her.  It takes about three years to get rid of a poor teacher if people are trying.  Unfortunately, good teachers can also be hounded out of jobs by incompetant administrators, so do make sure that this wasn't a fluke, or a case where she was overwhelmed with grading and just took it as a completion grade (not checked for accuracy).  If you are in an elementary school, you can lobby to have your child transfered to another class, but you will never be able to do that again, and will be labeled as a problem parent.  If you are in a middle or high school, make friends with the counselor so that your child is not placed in that teacher's class again.\nThe class average of 38%--do you know what this means?  38% passed a national standardized test?  38% of them have a C average or better in class?  The class has a 38% on all their work?  \nGood luck

Try dealing with hundreds of little A-holes all day!  Actually, the teacher's lounge is a gathering place to compare notes on trouble makers, and how they can combine to make his or her life a living hell!  Feel you are being treated poorly by several teachers?  You must have been the daily topic in the lounge! By the way, nice grammar!  go to school!

Hah, nobody likes teachers.\nTeachers do things they shouldn't.\nThey get away with it.\n\nLa la la life goes on.

Considering the teacher is the adult in the situation, he or she shouldn't worry if the students like them or not. If the student not speaking to them means that they also won't participate in class when required, then the teacher should adjust their grade accordingly. If the student does the required work, then I don't think it matters.

Once a school board makes up it's mind, the game is over. You could support the teachers by supporting any action they choose to take, such as sickouts or walkouts. My experience is that teachers teach for the love of teaching (not all) and that if they get stepped on, they won't mind too much.\n\nYou must be in a state with a weak teachers union. In NY or CA, this probably wouldn't fly.

I would talk to another teacher in your school, the principle or vice principle.  They should not be talking to you like that_

Talk to the school district's district office.  See if the kid can get trransferred to another teacher's class.  Don't be afraid to raise a little hell about it.  Just don't go over board and do anything rash.

Student-teachers, but a lot of the time it's public humiliation.\n\nMy history teacher told a student to stop fiddling around and take notes the other day. "Maybe if you do," he said, "you'll do better in my class."\nI think that was completely uncalled for and I'm sure the kid was embarrassed. Grades are between students and teachers and should not be discussed or hinted at. Sorry, it still bothers me.\n\nOh, yeah. We also have a few 'slow classes' that help people with a learning disability or otherwise. But I think that's about all.

get involved with the students and know them beyond the teacher/student relationship.  is there anything that they're dealing with at school?  perhaps a school event?  talk with them about things other than books and problems.  i don't know what grade level you're talking about and i'm not a teacher, just a student.  perhaps have activities that can show the students that it's not all about homework and tests.  how to do this?  not so sure.  but these are my suggestions.

Notify the dean about her teachings.  Teachers like this should already be on his watch list.  I had a prof. in college like that and they fired her.

first off if you were my child I would tell you to not talk in class,\nbut I would make an appointment and go talk to this so called teacher.\nwhat she did was much worse than what you did..\nshe is an authority figure and the students are suppose to follow her lead( learn for what she, she says and what she does )\nI can guarantee she would not like to be treated in this fashion in front of students or her teacher friends..\nyes if I were you I would think it through before you talk to her, but I would make an appointment to talk to her..\nyou can start off by saying you are sorry, this way she can't get on you...\nif this does not solve it go to her boss.

I had a math teacher, I actually felt sorry for him. He could not control the class at all. He would write on the board and there would be spit wads all over the board and in his hair. It was impossible to learn anything in his class. Some people just don't belong in the teaching profession.

first, make sure your teacher tells them that it was her who reported it, and not you. Second, get yourself a posse who will stick with you in case of another run-in, because if these numb-skulls are like any others, they won't care either way. try to avoid them.
