---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nathan Singer <nathansinger1181@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: dispensations I totally undertsand Esther's point. I too have students who were denied dispensations despite the fact that in our humble opinion they REALLY need them. In their IVCHUN it was recommended that they receive them! So it goes, resubmitting the forms and on and on as Esther described. As far as hours go, I have the same problem Esther has, especially with the weaker students. I find myself staying hours in the evenings without being paid, in order to help the weaker students, otherwise it simply won't happen for them. All the best, Nathan Singer
