Your kid isn’t failing because I’m failing to meet their IEP. They’re failing because their device is dead. Every. Single. Day

Firstly (because I’m sure I’ll get this question regardless): “whY DOnT YOu printT it oFf on PAper”: Admin wants everything on canvas because “equity” I have shit to do I need parents to understand something, because I feel like I’m losing my mind. Yes I know your child has an IEP. I follow it. I honor it. I provide the accommodations. But your child is not failing because I’m not not following their IEP. Your child is failing because they come to class (consistently) with a dead device. No device, no access to assignments, no way to read, write, or submit anything. Just vibes. And then somehow… this becomes my fault? I cannot teach a blank screen. I cannot magically upload assignments into a dead device. I cannot override the laws of electricity. At a certain point, this is not an “education issue.” This is “please plug in your child’s device at night.” I promise you: charging the iPad would do more for their grade right now than any accommodation ever could. submitted by /u/Emergency-Pepper3537 [link] [comments]
