B ut la te ly , it seem s th a t the
dissatisfaction o ver education and
d isc ip lin e in o u r schools is becom
ing a m ain topic
Problem s have existed fo r years in
(he public schools The frustration
arises w hen parents feel that they
have little , o r no say, in ho w the
schools are run A dm inistration feds
that it is their jo b . but w ho do parents
voice th eir feelings to when they feel
that the A d n u mst rat Kin is not doing
an e ffe c tiv e jo b ’’
T h ey tu rn to each o th er, and they
d o som ething about the situation
These are our children O u r children
are in (he care o f teachers each day
o f the school y ea r, and w c do have
a right to m ake judgm ents on the
responsible care provided by the
school system fo r our c h ild ren
W h e n we hire a babysitter fo r our
c h ild ren al hom e we w ant to be
reassured that it is responsible care
C a n we expect any less fo r our
c h ild ren w h ile they are al school?
W h en did it becom e policy for
teachers to tell parents " w h a t is best
fo r y o u r c h ild " ?
I know the fin a l say in decisions
concerning m> c h ild ren lies w ith
th eir father and I. hut lo o o ften I
have felt frustrated and " u p against
the w a ll" try ing to resolve problem s
W h en m y c h ild ren have a concern
I lake the lim e lo fin d out w hether

w ith my c h ild ’ s opinion M y kids are
no< alw avs rntht. and neither is their

that is the purpose o f the new
Teacher Evaluation F o rm in the lone
com m u n ity W h e n th eir is a valid

enough fo r the A d vis o ry B oard,
parents can docum ent that concern
and subm it it fo r the p rin c ip a l's
re v ie w T h is saves his tim e fro m
angry parents storm ing into the o f
fic e . and yet the parent can be sure
that the p rin c ip al w ill look into the
situation and fo llo w -u p w ith the
teacher, coach, bus d riv e r, p aren t,
and the student in vo lved
T h e fo rm m ay be v ie w e d w ith ap-
prehensKm , but anything new must
he understood fo r what it is. and not
what people w o uld like to th ink it is
It is not to cause pro blem s It is to
help parents, and the school m ain
tain a balance o f com m um catH in

I t ’s tim e w e . as parents, take a
