Amy Grant is generally a good student. Her grades usually fall into the B range. In the third quarter of her sophomore year, her grades drop to a level just above failing. Her teacher recognizes that she is trying not to fail, however her efforts are not where they had been. Which of the following would be the least appropriate response to this change in grades?
  1. Discussing with Amy why her grades are slipping
  2. Discussing with Amy’s parents why her grades are slipping
  3. Discussing with Amy’s guidance counselor the observation that the grades are slipping
  4. Discussing with Amy and her parents why her grades are slipping
Explanation
Answer: B - Discussing with Amy’s parents why her grades are slipping. This would be the least appropriate of the above choices because it circumvents the student in question. A dramatic shift in performance is indicative of a problem, and bringing her parents in to speculate may not be the best solution. There could be problems at home, and Amy should have a chance to explain the issues with her teachers, counselors and parents. In any event, Amy should be consulted.
