[/quote] I not only question the system, I challenge it big time. The teachers, the principal & the school board know me by name. You wouldn't believe how many alternative assignments my kids got in class when the project they were doing went against our personal beliefs or I felt they were way beyond what was expected of my kids at whatever age they were at the time. We helped out kids with their school projects, I don't care what the teacher said. [/quote]

Long story short, the elementary school where my child attends decided that because I used the parent email list to contact other parents and ask their opinion of goings on in class, I am directing malice towards the teacher. I have tried talking with this teacher about anything that's bothered me about her lessons or lack thereof... and I did it as nicely as possible. All I got in return were responses that dodged all my questions.
I can't argue about my opinion of the teacher, but I did in no way, say anything bad about this teacher. This teacher has dumbed down the level difficulty that 2nd grade should be. All the kids have done so far is review from 1st grade and earlier. Then, all of a sudden the teacher assigned a cultural heritage project and proclaimed that the kids should be able to research it, present it etc with no help from their parents. Absolutely impossible expectations since the kids haven't learned anything beyond a 1st grade level so far this year.
I simply asked other parents if they thought that the most recent project the teacher had assigned was too hard for the children.
So, my question is this: Does this principal have any right to tell me I cannot contact other parents via email to discuss class matters?
