Looking For a Circus To Run Away To...
Had a situation today which was a cluster
EVERYONE screwed this up
Except me.
I was the guy who followed protocol and did what i was supposed to
So I'm the one the parent went to the principal about

And the Principal looked into it and told the parent "Thank you for bringing this to my attention. After I investigated, it turns out your kid did wrong and Mr. K was following protocol. I'm not gonna tell you what to do her, but my suggestion is that you take young Wendy home and punish her for her part in all this, so that she learns a valuable lesson."

That's what Marie of Romania told me happened, anyway.

Actually, the student gets to make up nine weeks of work he was present for, had time to do in class, but chose not to turn in.
He gets to make up a test that he was already given opportunities to make up and chose not to do so
and he gets to have his quarter grade changed

Clearly, this is the result of all the "entitlement" issues our society has fallen prey to. I think its crap - unless the kid had a really good reason not to do the work in the first place, he shouldn't be able to make it up. I take comfort in the notion that some day Little Junior will enter the real world where this behavior doesn't fly and this sort of behavior will rise up and bite him someplace uncomfortable.

On the up side, you followed the correct protocols like you should have and good for you for sticking to your principles. I'm proud of you. :)
