My mother (the school board president) threatened the middle school principal when teachers were trying to hold my brother (who now has a doctorate) back a year. As the story goes, the principal got backed up the the back wall and was trying to dissolve into the blackboard.
As a parent and with that history in mind, I about went nuclear on my son's teacher when she moved him from an a to an f in 2 weeks with no notice. I still get mad when I think about it.
