I know it's been said before - call to check!

<p>We had a similar foul up last year. One of D's teachers suffered a stroke early in the semester and had to take the rest of the term off to recover. They hired a substitute to finish teaching the class, but for some reason that is beyond me, the school left it to the original teacher, who was still at home, to assign the final grades. She had still not fully recovered her wits and in her confusion gave every kid in the class a C.</p>

<p>I was furious with the school. Furious for making the poor sick teacher do the grades when she was clearly not ready, and furious for them messing up D's transcript at a critical time. We got it sorted out in plenty of time, but it never should have happened.</p>

<p>The teacher has since fully recovered and returned to work. And I learned to keep a sharp eye on what the school is doing with the transcripts.</p>
