Non Mopar rant! High school politics.
Jeeper, I appreciate your input. If my son's math teacher would have cared half as much as you did in just replying here, problem would likely have been solved.
There are good teachers and bad teachers. My oldest had a real good cop/bad cop act for a pair of teachers when he entered 1st grade and it pretty much set the tone for his six years of elementary school. I mentioned he was a big kid and the bad cop assumed this meant my son was a bully when the reverse was true. It was miserable. School change to junior high along with a move of our residence and everything changed.
My mom was a teacher thru thu 70's and 80's. Pretty much was pushed out at age 60 because she did not represent the new way of doing things. Anyways, she probably did not have nearly as much trouble with the kids as she did with the parents. When she passed away a few years ago, I was surprised to see how many of her former students showed up at the funeral. She always treated them like family and she put extra effort into the tough cases. Some pretty rough stories came along with the territory. Abuse runs rampant where you least expect it.
