I Stand Corrected!!!!

I talked to the principal about this situation this morning and I guess it is a teacher's perrogative to do what she wants. If she says you can retake a test if you made a 70 or below or 80 or below it is her choice. I however still think it is completley unfair but I can't fight it if it is a rule at the school. Sigh*********

Update!

This just keeps getting better. So the teacher is accepting the report that Sydney redid. BUT.... while I was there the teacher let me know that syd made a 77 on a test. So.... I ask syd about it when I pick her up from school. Here's the good part......she says the highest grade was an 80. She let everybody with a 75 or below take it over. WHAT???????? That is the most unfair thing I have ever heard. It was the exact same test too. Does this woman have it out for Sydney or is this just how she operates? What do you think about this? To me it is the most unethical thing I have heard of- how com someone with a 74 gets the opportunity to make 100 but my child is stuck with her 77? CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHY????

I am off to have a conference with a teacher in about an hour!!!! Syd brought home her report card last night and she has all A's except for PE!!! So I say--what is going on? She says- the teacher says I didn't turn in my report(yes report in PE) and she gave me a zero. Well I watched Sydney do this report and she swears she turned it in. The teacher didn't give Syd a chance to do it over just gives her a zero- the only B on her report card. I am livid. I am going down there this morning and hoping she will change her mind otherwise I am going up the chain of command on this one- just for the principle of it. Syd is a good student and doesn't just -not do her work. This teacher should have handled this differently. What do you think about this? I can't believe I have to go be controversial- I hate it- but I dislike what this PE teacher has done to my child more.
PS- who does reports in pe--isn't it supposed to be easy?
