| 08/30/2010 | Dear Mrs. Cates, Donna and I completed our homework as directed by Annie and reviewed the PowerPoint provided on your website. We did this over the weekend but sent it to you via your e-mail link--oops. Thank you for making this available as it gave us a chance to discuss with Annie the rules and expectations for the year. We do, however, have concerns over giving the children check marks for having to use the restroom. While we agree mathematics are important, biology is equally important, especially for young women. Obviously, going to the restroom repeatedly or habitually requires attention. Checks for restroom breaks should have an expiration date to allow an equitable treatment. We look forward to Annie improving and growing in her math skills. Do not hesitate to contact us with any comments or concerns either positive or negative. Sincerely Tom and Donna Overbay |
