I am happy the assistant principle gave me the classes I need but she is not firing her... what should I do?? She is also harrassing many other kids... alot stood up for themself but no one is really doing anything and she is not giving the classes her students need!! I just want to know what I should do about this? Who can I report her too? Thanks!

Answer 1

Keep complaining about her until the principal or whatever gets fed up so she gets fired.

Answer 2

i don't know just get away from her...i've had weird teachers like that noone wanted to be in their class and i kind of felt sorry for them at first..but when people start getting personal and holding you back at the end..trying to twist things..trying to intimidate and getting in your personal space etc  you don;t know what to do...just quit stupid counselling NOW before you regret it...i wish i'd gotten away from those people sooner..my parents didn't give a d**n they thougt it was just me who had a problem with him. i reported it but they'd basically given up and didn't care..they probably didn't believe me or take me seriously seeing as i am younger and they'd had so many complaints...i was the one who should've got out of there myself really

Answer 3

You could tell your parents and hopefully the principal would take action, while the other students going through the same situation should also do the same. With more calls from the parents to the principal may resolve some issues. The next step if not resolve to the school board.  

Answer 4

You're on the right track.  First you do need to notify your parents.  It's their tax dollars that are paying for your education, and everyone must be accountable to someone.

You need to document (unemotionally) what happened, the date and time.  Do this for about two weeks and ask others to do the same. Be honest, don't make this a grudge-fest.  

Then each person makes a copy (keep your original), and ask your parents to present it to the principal in a meeting with the counselor.  If a group of parents/students can demonstrate that there is a pattern of bad behavior here, the school administrators will be forced to address the problem.

If multiple students are all reporting the same problem, any school would be terribly foolish to risk taking no action at all.  If your parents are willing to give their support, and the school did nothing, then your next step would be to go to the Superintendent of Schools.

But remember that you're talking about potentially presenting evidence that could cause someone to lose their job.  This can't be frivolous, it's serious.  

Good luck.

Answer 5

all of the kids that she has been harrassing need to get together and go up to the principal and tell her everything thats going on.
