<p>Glad it’s working out for you, OP. My kid attends a private school, which costs us a bundle, and today, 5 days before his EA applications are due, his teacher letters are still not submitted (requested in early Sept.). Kid has visited both teachers a couple times to check on status, has contacted via Naviance system. One of kid’s prospective colleges needs TWO essays; drafts given to Eng. teacher a MONTH ago and still, no feedback. Waiting. Waiting. GC has made it clear that kids are to do all this themselves, learn to break away from parents blah blah…at one point does the person who pays the huge tuition bill say enough is enough and go to the principal or CEO? The kids are swamped right now, trying to do college aps on top of very demanding senior schedule with piles of homework, sport, school play, volunteer work. They don’t need this added pressure.</p>
