My ACK is simiiar, but with READ 180. Teacher - My students can't login. ME - I told her my pa and login and said to try that, they all have basically the same and it don't vary to much unless a brother or sister are involved and she said OK. Teacher - (Next Day). My kids can't login ME - Did your try the method I gave you? Teacher - Yes, Ok I look at it after classes. Spent and hour after classes login in kids, etc. in different reading lab machined - No problems. Next Morning - HS Principal - (He's wise to her). Did you give those kids password, etc.? Me - I gave all the kids login and passwords and they all worked last night. Principal - No these are the NEW kids she gets in the class. Me - What new kids? Principal - The kids we assigned her last Friday. Me - She never told me abut them.
To shorted the story, I talked to her again his morning and she still has not given me the kids names to enter. This stuff really wastes my time this time of year. How many days until the end of May?????
