Im sorry you are feeling attacked. The education process goes both ways. I don't think you should be solely responsible for contacting the school to find out how your child is progressing. But the school should contact you if they think your child is having difficulty at school. I understand your worry when it comes to the report card, and yes I would be contacting the school to make a time for a meeting with the teacher. But I also wonder whether your dd's results were not picked up until report time, or that they are not in the lowest performing group in the class. Perhaps being the mid year report your dd's teacher is noting where she requires assistance but has faith that with work she will improve in the second half of the year.
My advice is call the school in the morning, make a time for an appointment and talk tot eh teacher about your dd's report card and progress. You are not at fault but also I don't think the school is either, especially if she is not in the bottom group of achievers in the class.
