To Whom It May Concern,
On the morning in question, I dropped my daughter off at school at *:* AM. Though the school starts at *:* AM, she went to get a drink with a friend beforehand. While I did not approve of this behavior, I can verify through text that she was back by *:* AM. At *:* AM, I returned to the school parking lot to give her forgotten medication, coinciding with her return to class.
During this time, a teacher confronted my daughter about her whereabouts. As my daughter entered the school, the teacher approached my car window, informing me that she had emailed me regarding my daughter's absence from campus. Before I could fully respond, the teacher walked away, implying my acceptance of the situation. I clarified from my van that she misunderstood me. The teacher returned to my vehicle and listened as I explained my presence and my prior communication with my daughter. She then made an unprofessional comment, "Well, I guess it was exercise," and walked away.
This encounter was highly unprofessional and inappropriate, especially considering my daughter's neurological disability. Instead of addressing the issue formally through a meeting, the teacher approached me in the parking lot,failing to provide a respectful and constructive dialogue.

To Whom It May Concern,
In September, it came to my attention that there was no transportation from the old location to the new location for my daughter. I was assured by Mrs. Goessman that transportation would be handled for all students. Later, I was informed by the principal that Mrs. Goessman suggested my daughter use public transit despite her neurological condition, which includes fainting and non-epileptic seizures. This recommendation disregards her safety and well-being, showcasing a lack of risk management and awareness.
On another occasion, I dropped my daughter off at *:* AM. Though school starts at *:* AM, she went to get a drink with a friend beforehand. While I did not approve of this behavior, I can verify through text that she was back by *:* AM. At *:* AM, I returned to the school parking lot to give her forgotten medication, coinciding with her return to class. During this time, Mrs. Goessman confronted my daughter about her whereabouts. My daughter avoided answering and went into class. As my daughter entered theschool, the teacher aggressively approached my car window, informing me that she had emailed me regarding my daughter's absence from campus before class had begun. Before I could fully respond, the teacher walked away, implying my acceptance of the situation. I clarified from my van that she misunderstood me. The teacher returned to my vehicle and listened as I explained my presence and my prior communication with my daughter. She then made an unprofessional comment, "Well, I guess it was exercise," and walked away. This teacher reprimanded only my daughter and not the other student involved.
Additionally, Mrs. Goessman asked my daughter not once but twice to share a traumatic incident involving a vehicle that happened over the summer. My daughter initially refused but felt pressured to share the next day, leading to other students laughing at her. This was highly inappropriate and exacerbated her trauma.
Under the BC Human Rights Code and the School Act, schools must provide reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities and ensure their safety. The teacher’s behavior did not align with these legal requirements or the professional standards set by the BC Teachers' Council, including:
- Standard *: Educators value and care for all students and act in their best interests.
- Example: Mrs. Goessman suggested my daughter use

Here’s the revised breakdown, including the relevant BC Teachers’ Council Standards for each specific behavior of concern: Specific Behaviors of Concern: *. Public Transportation Recommendation: • What Happened: In September, Mrs. Goessman informed the principal that my daughter would do fine on public transportation, despite knowing she has Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). • When It Happened: This occurred when the school transitioned to a new location and no transportation was provided from the old location. • Who Was Involved: Mrs. Goessman and the principal were involved in this decision-making process. • BC Teachers’ Council Standards Violated: • Duty of Care: Teachers must ensure the safety and well-being of students, which Mrs. Goessman failed to uphold by recommending public transit for a student with FND. • Professional Conduct: Teachers are expected to make decisions that prioritize student safety, which was not evident in this recommendation. *. Pressure to Share Traumatic Experience: • What Happened: My daughter was pressured by Mrs. Goessman to share a traumatic incident involving a vehicle that occurred over the summer with her classmates. After initially refusing, she was approached again the next day and chose to share, which led to classmates giggling about her experience. • When It Happened: This incident occurred during the first week of school when students were sharing personal stories. • Who Was Involved: Mrs. Goessman and my daughter were directly involved, along with other students in the class. • BC Teachers’ Council Standards Violated: • Respect for Student Dignity: Teachers must respect the privacy and emotional well-being of students, which Mrs. Goessman neglected by pressuring my daughter to share her traumatic experience. • Professional Conduct: Teachers are expected to create a safe learning environment, which was compromised by this incident. *. Confrontation in the Parking Lot: • What Happened: On a day when my daughter briefly left school to get a drink with a classmate, Mrs. Goessman confronted me aggressively in the parking lot as I arrived to deliver my daughter’s forgotten medication, in front of my daughter. • When It Happened: This occurred on the morning of the school day when my daughter returned just before *:* AM. • Who Was Involved: Mrs. Goessman confronted me, and my daughter was present during this interaction. • BC Teachers’ Council Standards Violated: • Professional Conduct: Teachers must maintain professional boundaries and communicate respectfully, which Mrs. Goessman failed to do during this confrontation. • Communication: Teachers are required to communicate effectively with parents, which was not upheld in this aggressive approach. Let me know if you need further modifications or additional details!
