coach I like you and never have had a quarrel with you as far as i can remember and want to keep it that way but I must confess you are kind of hitting on a nerve here a little. As a teacher and coach I can tell you that 99% of all things said in faculty meetings or even athletic department meetings is a total waste of time and hours of my life I will never get back. You want nails on a chalk board? Just listen to your average principal drone on in a faculty meeting. Most teachers are screwing around in the back of the room like school kids. We don't care!!! Now that I am old and just sub I can not tell you how happy I am not to be in those meetings. And maybe its a preconceived notion on both sides. Maybe you go into that parent meeting with a bias. I will openly admit I went into every faculty meeting with a bias. Maybe I missed some good stuff cause I had determined long ago those meetings were a colossal waste of time. Just food for thought.
