How is your relationship with your child's school, and how would you like to see it improve?

jalvarez, does your son have some kind of special learning challenges? Most parents are "indifferent" unless their child's academic needs aren't being addressed, or there is some sort of bullying taking place.
If your son is struggling academically, has he ever had a comprehensive educational evaluation for learning disabilities? You might want to join Greatschools Learning and Attention Difficulties Group at community.greatschools.net/groups/11554.
If bullying is a concern, you might want to join community.greatschools.net/groups/11560 and for support with single parenting, you can join community.greatschools.net/groups/11559

I hate my childs school and I think that is very sad. I am so upset because it makes me feel like I have failed as a mother. My son is in 6th grade and I hate the district, hate the teachers, and I hate half of the children in his class. He is so miserable, the only reason why I send him there is because its close by and i don't have anyone to take him or pick him up from school. So my only choice is to send him there. What should i do?

I am on the school leadership team,PTA and assist the parent coordinator at my younger childrens' school. I would love for other parents to get involved.

If you work full time then a good option is to see if you can find out which parents are on the school leadership team. There should be posted minutes of every meeting that can keep you informed, this way you are more willing to talk with the principal about topics that concern you and the school. Simply baking for bake sales can make your kids proud-they'll say my mom made those!
