Here's the thing. Your child does not generally EXCEL in school, without heavy involvement at home. I DO fill in the gaps, but I am divorced, and finding out things from Mom is inconsistent.
I would like to see more communication from the teacher. On the flip side, because my daughter is in a classroom with kids that don't have the advantages she does, she is "dragged" (see, I did read other posts) down to the other students level.
I will admit, the classroom has CRAPPY computers. I have volunteered to come in and work on them if needed, since IT is what I do for a living.
