I recently mailed home a letter to my upcoming students. I added in there that "I am your Special Education Teacher" this year. It was a very informal letter with just some information saying that I created a website/homepage for them...etc....
I got an e-mail from a parent saying that it was harsh that it had "special education teacher" in there. Her son ripped it up. He feels already bad being special ed. and kids can make him feel bad...and so on...
I mailed it home specifically so I wouldn't have to do it in the beginning of the school year, which is a directive from our school. My students are in sixth grade (ages 11-13) and kids can be harsh. Am I overreacting in this case or is it just an overprotective parent voicing her opinion?
