I had a grade 12 HL math student tell me that she was going to the bathroom, left and never came back. I've been working hard to accomodate this student because I think she really liked the teacher I replaced.
Anyway, I told my principal and he threw it back on me to an extent. He is going to have her write me a letter explaining why student is frustrated with the class and what student would like to see me do to improve the class. Basically for this students benefit, I already created and acted on a math grade 12 student feedback form. My principal feels if this student isn't dealt with, it could not only poison my role in the class but with all my other grade level (10th and 11th) students.
I'm going to comply but I'm starting to feel irritated. If a student gets frustrated and walks out of class, wouldn't a detension be a better idea?
