Yes, please reach out and find out what happened. Hopefully the teacher will explain what happened. Maybe you can ask to visit the classroom and observe?

I remember my son told me last year that he was fired from K9 Crunchies. He said the para fired him. So he didn’t do that for the rest of the school year. I asked the teacher during a meeting what happened. She said he fired himself because he didn’t like it. Now he enjoys K9 Crunchies.

Please keep us updated. I know it’s frustrating when your child can’t tell you exactly what happened.

YES! Also the head of the special education department. Send an email to the teacher and cc: the head of the special education department.

If I reach out tomorrow and I feel like her feedback isn’t helping my concern should I just go to the principal
