I am still waiting for the Parent-Teacher request for Cub. I’m not actually holding my breath on this invite because she taught him last year too and I’m still waiting for that one. However, I have concluded that his teacher does NOT want to meet a parent of every student she teaches.
I base this whole theory on that time I bailed her up in the classroom. It was about a project in the 4th term – only to find out that Cub knew about it 6 weeks earlier and ‘forgot’ to tell me until the night before. I had to apologise profusely and get a reprieve for him.
And then, there was the occasion, when she kindly informed me that I could go and get Cub from the classroom because, “They were just playing games”. Actually that was the last day of the 4th term (just before the Christmas holidays) so for that she is forgiven.
Currently, she allows him to leave the classroom 5 minutes before the bell, because, according to Pup, “She probably knows I’m there”. That’s all good and well, but what if I’m not?
Other than that, she does not like to make eye contact with adults. Not that I blame her – but I do know how to behave in public.
I think she may have decided to pacify me by nominating him for the Principal’s Award. But because this is not about me, she might have actually done something decent by finally acknowledging his existence in her classroom.
Regardless of her reasoning, I am extremely proud of Cub and his certificate. It was even laminated and is currently the main focus on our fridge.
