Please stop repeating this myth over and over. Kids were in separate spelling groups according to ability based on a spelling test, yes. But the reading groups were up to the kids - they choose what books to read from several choices. And those group were constantly changing based on what book the kid chose. There were not two separate groups - unless you are saying the teacher had a group of favorites, but they were not assigned different work - except for levels of spelling words. Or when the kids got to choose which type of project to do - or how involved to get in the project. At least we never saw that in the two years we experienced with the 4th grade teacher with two different kids.


Yes, you are correct. This poster is stretching the truth or is delusional. Both my kids had her. Sure, she was tough but not anything like what they're describing.


Two groups in the same class. One group had "Thursday" and "apple" on their spelling exam when the other group had "tetrarchy" but were graded on the same grading rubric?

But if you were someone who signed off on the paperwork or a parent who's kid benefitted from that, I can see why you would try to defend it?


I've posted this before but my kid was in the lower spelling group. I thought the words were easy. I asked to move him to the higher group. She moved him. Zero issues. Maybe you're overthinking it?


Same with us, but I couldn't even tell there was a difference between the groups. DC wanted to switch to be with their friends and the teacher said it was fine.


Which book?


You must not have a kid, @PBES. The groups were for spelling words. It wasn't a big deal.

About books, my kids read approximately a book a month in CES. Kids could choose 1 of 3-4 books each month; these choices were set by the CES curriculum used by every center. It had nothing to do with spelling groups. That poster just forgot to take their meds again.


Now I know you're you're not a PBES parent or teacher.

I don't know why MCPS CO staff and BOE members get on this post and pretend to be parents? It's very strange.


The poster obsessed with the teacher that left years ago could be a parent but definitely has mental health issues.

The poster who keeps lying (why?) about when a teacher left even though it’s verifiably true that it was last year clearly has mental health issues and compulsive lying tendencies on a par with Trump.

There are several other posters with multiple but different concerns. All of whom know that the teacher was there last year and wonder why there are so many weird posts on this thread,

It was a wonderful program that had the same curriculum at every center. Seems like there were a lot of Karens at PBES. Most parents wish their kids had a challenging curriculum, but these Karens would've been better off declining the invitation. They saw CES as prestige and had no interest in learning.


You are obsessive aren’t you? So much sock puppeting here. Central office employee?

Those of us who are actually parents know that the implantation of the curriculum varies considerably between schools and even between grades.

It seems to be just one poster obsessed with the CES teacher that left a few years ago. They seem unhinged and would be well served by seeking therapy.

DD was also in this program during the 2020-2021 school year before she left. It was a challenging class, and the teacher was a hard grader, but DD grew tremendously that year too. It's too bad there aren't more teachers like this who demand excellence from their students.

I’ve posted several times. I’m not the poster who complains about reading groups and spelling (which I’ve seen before on DCUM but didn’t jive with my kids experience). I’m not the poster/s who shared many of the complaints. There are multiple posters.

I’m beginning to think that there is just one person saying the opposite (she’s tough but “my child grew tremendously”, parents didn’t want homework, she left years ago (untrue for the record), was promoted, CES is the same curriculum etc) again and again, posting the same things using the same language for pages.

Talk about obsessive! You won’t let it drop!

I mean how obsessive can you be to keep insisting a teacher left “years ago” when that’s a bold faced lie. I’m not even sure why that is even important and have no clue why you are lying and continuing to do so.

I hadn't posted here previously, and I get that you have issues with this teacher. However, not everyone agrees. Further, attempting to marginalize others who disagree with your limited and unique point of view only strengthens the PP's case that you are nuts.

I'm new to this thread too. I get the impression it's just one disgruntled parent who is obsessed with a teacher because they had high expectations from their students.

Wow. NP here.

My child was in her class last year (yes she was at the school last year). I agree with a lot of what has said. My child found her engaging and enthusiastic, but she also had favorites and didn’t treat the children fairly. There were some interesting projects but agree re excessive volume. It was a hard year. glad my daughter had a better experience this year with a different teacher.

No experience with spelling groups. There were no spelling tests all year.

Weird my neighbor's kid was also in that 4th grade CES. Since their older child had her a few years before with mine, I'd asked if they had enjoyed her class, but they told me she had left. Anyway, she was definitely tough, and the 5th-grade teacher who retired was a lot easier. Nevertheless, she seemed fairer than the 5th-grade teacher, who favored girl students over boys.

The fifth grade teacher (male) retired in 2021. The teacher we are all talking about left at the end of last school year. Call your neighbor right now and she’ll let you know you misunderstood.

My child was in her class last year (yes she was at the school last year). I agree with a lot of what has said. My child found her engaging and enthusiastic, but she also had favorites and didn’t treat the children fairly. There were some interesting projects but agree re excessive volume. It was a hard year. glad my daughter had a better experience this year with a different teacher.

No experience with spelling groups. There were no spelling tests all year.


Weird my neighbor's kid was also in that 4th grade CES. Since their older child had her a few years before with mine, I'd asked if they had enjoyed her class, but they told me she had left. Anyway, she was definitely tough, and the 5th-grade teacher who retired was a lot easier. Nevertheless, she seemed fairer than the 5th-grade teacher, who favored girl students over boys.


The fifth grade teacher (male) retired in 2021. The teacher we are all talking about left at the end of last school year. Call your neighbor right now and she’ll let you know you misunderstood.


Do us all a favor and seek therapy. Your obsession with this teacher insn't healthy.

PP here. I don’t know what to say - she was there last year and my daughter was in her 4th grade class. if your neighbor’s child was in 4th grade CES they were in the same class.
