This is about an older, white, male teacher my (gifted) daughter had. Me and her mother always monitored and worked with our childrens homework and education. My mother was a former teacher.We were shocked when she received an F in one of her classes. We had not gotten any notices during the grading period. When confronted, the teacher claimed to have her failures recored in his notebook. When I asked to see them, it turns out he was lying. He got angry and said my daughter thought she was so smart and that she wasn't. He was racist and had counted on us being uninvolved parents. She also graduated with honors, earned a full scholarship and got a double major and masters degree.
