Toni met again with Ms. Fletcher and the assistant principal, Margaret Hall, the following day. I'm afraid this is very serious, Toni. Toni could see that she had miscalculated Danny's grade for the assignment and acknowledged that she had made a mistake. She then assured Ms. Fletcher and Ms. Hall that she would never yell at a parent and offered to show her the video of the typical school day in her class as well as enrichment materials she used with her students. Ms. Hall had been silent up until this point, looking rather uncomfortable as she sat alongside Toni on the couch.
Parents often request to have their children transferred from one classroom to another.
It's usually just the family's preference for a particular teaching style. Some of the parents just might not be comfortable with yours. After much consideration, Toni called Mrs. Caldwell that evening, assuring her of Danny's progress and expressing regret for the grading error. I am really sorry that I made that mistake on Danny's spelling test. I was trying to get all the tests graded while the children were in Music because I wanted them corrected that afternoon.
