Dad should put her in a good private school.
There are tardy rules in private schools as well. Hubby offered to do detention for our daughter because she had too many “unexcused” tardies. The unexcused part disappeared after his offer. But daughter was being marked as late while our perpetually slow son was being given a pass by his first period teacher. The reason they were/are late is always son’s fault. He finds a way to cause them to leave later than hubby would like every single day. If traffic is good, there isn’t a problem. But most of the time, traffic is an issue.
Many of us dads would.. just as soon as we get a refund from the current school we are forced to pay for. Considering what a pita I have been with them you’d think they would have cut a check already.. I think I heard a head explode when I threatened to run for school board. (and I am seriously thinking about it)
My brother is a high school teacher (who home schools his own kids) He teaches engineering technical classes. He had a scheduled field trip cancelled at the last minute because he did not fill out a form that nobody knew he needed to complete. The Principal is a total lunatic who is unemployable in any context.
They tried to build a case to fire my brother last year based on incompetence. I met some of his students last year. All I said was “I’m Mr. Cyclotic’s brother.” and the students all began to say with great enthusiasm what a great teacher he is and how they go out of their way to take his classes.
I agree, get your kids out of the public school asylum.
