I am so sorry you and your dd are going through this.
However, I don't really see the point in blaming anyone for the problem. I would suggest that you focus on a solution instead. I would have a conference with the teacher first. If you feel too angry to do that on your own, set it up with the counselor. I would keep the principal out of it for now.
1. From now on, find out what page she should be on each night and make sure those pages were done that day. Ask the teacher to email you if there is an issue that day or that week even. (Even once a week would help.) If you don't hear from the teacher by the end of a week, take the initiative and email her.
2. Set up a realistic schedule to get her caught up. Maybe three or four pages a night?
3. Find out why your dd isn't getting it finished. Is there a type of problem she doesn't understand?
I hope you can all work it out amicably for your daughter's sake.
