The Great Test Debacle of 2008

Oh a little update...Kiddo 1 BOMBED his Advanced Placement test. He barely missed last year and this year his scores plummeted...which means he doesn't get into the Advanced class. I am ticked. He is quickly losing ground in his top-of-the-class status...and I am blaming his teacher for not calling out for help. She lets him slide thru the cracks because he doesn't demand attention. But he's also not doing all that he can...she treats him like a self starter (which he's not) and then chastises him when he doesn't complete work or its half-assed. Arrrgh! Couldn't she have brought his underachieving to our attention? She didn't...she sent home a note saying that the upcoming conferences are optional and that she has no reason to see us. I'm going to pop!

Going to start posting knitting on here too...while I'm thinking of it.
