I have recently found out that the teacher that my son had last year doesn't like to teach boys. Doesn't matter if they are angels or total brats. She makes class very hard for them. The girls usually have no problems.I have talked to the principal about this during the school year last year but she never addressed it with me at all.What do you all suggest I do

I would report that teacher to the school board and education board .And that teacher should probably teach at a all girls school LMAO

This sounds strange to me. I probably wouldn't worry about it since your son is no longer in her class. The principle may have addressed it but never got back to you with what was discussed. I think you've done what you can. Your kids are going to come across a lot of different challenges in their school years. I would let this one go.

i think all the parents that has boys in the class or was in the class to go and confront her and if that doesnt work go to the school board and tell them whats going on.

Ask your child to tell you specific ways that she has discriminated against the boys. Make a list. Maybe ask other moms of boys to do the same and then call her on it. I get mad when people tell me my daughter can't do rugby or soccer so when the tables are turned I couldn't stay quiet. If there are genuine times when she treats the boys different then she need to know that she is treating people differently on the grounds of gender. it wouldn't be tolerated if it was on the grounds of religion if she was treating jewish or muslim kids differently so don't let her get away with it.
