DD was very upset at school today. Her Physics teacher would not allow his class to attend the Veterans appreciation assembly. My DD told him that her father and uncle are Veterans and it was important to her to attend and honor the local veterans. He told the class, "Well I am celebrating my mothers birthday today.".

I'm going to call the Principal first and have him talk to the teacher and other students.
 
My daughter is very respectful of Veterans and sobbed tonight as she read her letter to an active soldier that was an assignment in her criminal justice class today.
 
She is so touched by our military and her family members that are veterans that she plans on going into the military herself.
 
I will let you know the results of the phone call. We may need to have a few Vets pay this teacher a friendly wake up visit. 4951

I have a personal relationship with the Principal. I do not know this teacher. I am more comfortable allowing the Principal handle it as he sees appropriate. I afraid that I would not handle the conversation with the teacher in the most beneficial way. 4951

I am still very upset about this. I called the Principal this morning and he said he would check into it and call me back. I did not receive a call back. GRRR 4951

Just curious, what do you want to happen? Seems all he could do now is apologize and admit his priorities were not in the right place. 4951

Porter High School. I have contacted ABC 13. I want ant apology. I want this teacher to have his own little education course with some veterans in his classroom. The students who were not allowed to attend should get their opportunity to show their appreciation to some local veterans. This teacher needs to understand that he showed these students a complete disrespect of our veterans. 4951

I'd this teacher had said "We have a lot of work to cover today." would have been one thing. But to tell them he was celebrating his mothers birthday..... Completely disrespectful and inappropriate. 4951

Could you not have found another avenue for her to express her appreciation when she found she would miss the school assembly? She could have visited with Veterans at local nursing homes, the VA, etc.

She writes letters to several active duty and some friends that have recently joined the services. This is not the point. She has a teacher that has shown blatant disrespect. 4951
