You know that “lockdowns” and isolation are a form of torture. Most families couldn’t afford babysitters.

Okay but they've been back in school for 2 years now. It's not Covid anymore. It's crappy parenting and too much screens.

I agree with this too. I work in an elementary school. So many of the elementary kids I serve are lacking basic vocabulary and grammar because they’ve sat in front of a screen. I mean it’s crazy-preschoolers and kindergarteners who can’t tell you their colors or the names of common items in the house but can talk all about Rainbow friends or Mario. It’s shocking.

Also-teachers are complaining about how parents expect them to do everything now. Potty train my kid. Get my kids to eat vegetables. Teach my child how to make friends.

Lacking grammar and vocabulary because the schools aren't teaching it anymore. My 4th grader has never received any instruction on grammar and absolutely no instruction on spelling. Her teacher literally said they don't teach spelling anymore because kids only type and can use spell check. What kind of bullshit curriculum doesn't teach basic grammar and spelling?

That’s appalling.

Nope. My kids have been in AAP since 3rd, 1 is about to graduate with a full IB diploma, the other is in 10th taking AP classes. They are at 2 different schools. The senior pupil placed to an IB Scchool. The Board reads like fiction to me. My kids and their peers are studious and motivated and teachers love them. Teachers will reach out to me unsolicited about my kids with positive messages. I think I'm more the norm than this board would have you believe.

3 teachers my kids had in the past have since left FCPS, the rest have remained. All of the 3 that left, still keep in contact with my kids and my family. 2 of the 3 that left, along with his current English teacher, helped review my oldests's college/scholarship essays.

Which school pyramids? My kid’s counselor resigned halfway through the school year and one of his STEM teachers just resigned, too. Yeah, my kids are “studious and motivated,” too. I found that the teachers were far too overwhelmed to give my kids attention. You get emails from your kids’ teachers? They have the spare time to do that? I’ve gotten maybe sum total three emails about both of my kids over K-12

Really? We get a weekly email from our kid’s 6th grade teacher.

Your child should have a word study block daily. Every 3-6 grade should.

It's not fair that schools only focus on AAP/IP/AP children. My child is not AAP smart, but she's a hard worker, she doesn't ask for screen time, she doesn't watch a lot of TV, she's super well behaved but she's an average kid, she's in general education stuck with the poorly behaved kids and if you want to talk about a child who is COMPLETELY ignored and is falling behind because of inclusion/ADHD kids/ESOL kids/etc in the class, that's MY KID. We spend thousands on tutors because she's not learning anything in school. We got her tested because we thought maybe she had a learning disability or something, but no, she's just a perfectly normal, average child who isn't getting taught anything because her teachers are too busy with troubled kids and all the smart kids were sorted into AAP where they get all sorts of special treatment, special lessons, no disruption. IT'S NOT FAIR.

p.s. Not Catholic, we can't afford expensive private schools, we're just plain screwed.

I'm not sure what you want here. A class for only the super nice kids? It does stink that your kid isn't getting enough out of school, but lowering the bar for everyone is not the solution.

I don't think that's what the poster meant. I think they, like a lot of people, are fed up with their kids getting screwed over for being "normal." If the kid isn't smart enough for AAP, or protected by a 504/IEP, they are totally screwed. Gen Ed classes are dominated by children who should not be included in a general education classroom-- disruptive behavior issues that suck up all the teacher's time and attention. But any time anyone suggests this is a valid issue, you get people screaming about how their precious monster is entitled to be in the classroom and has a right to be disruptive and no one can suggest otherwise because of their "disability." And suggesting that a child with a disruptive disability should be in a separate classroom with more support somehow makes you ableist and evil and advocating for all disabilities to be excluded. Why arent normal kids entitled to FAPE?

I look at my grade level and none of the SPED kids are disruptive. All of our disruptive kids are the academically normal ones or ESOL students.

Sometimes being moved to a different classroom. Getting sent to office. Sometimes in school suspension. In other grades there are SPED kids with behavior issues but the majority of the kids who are behavior problems aren’t SPED.

Teachers can influence behavior while at school for most. They just don’t want to be bothered often.

No, I see why you might think that, but I cannot undo your parenting. Your influence is the important one.

Neither can parents undo your teaching.

Or, lack of teaching. The teacher just throws the pre-canned Social Studies slides at the students yesterday (67 slides) and tells them to do as many as possible. No teaching, no lecture, no read aloud… That’s teaching folks?

Teachers want to teach. If that’s not happening there is a bigger problem. They can’t fix kids. They can’t fix unrealistic expectations. They can’t do it all. Other people play a role in creating the school environment and child development. Legislatures, school board, administrators, and, yes, even parents all have the more power. The people actually teaching? Unfortunately, not so much. Teachers need to be valued more and given a voice.

They will be valued when they deserve to be.

You are an idiot and a huge part of the problem.

Pot meet kettle.

No, I values teachers and do what I can to support them and their classrooms. I work with my kids at home to respectful and prepared to learn.

I would gladly pay more taxes for better staffing/pay. I support removing superfluous requirements.

Teachers should have more of a voice so we can improve education.

Coming from the righteous one who resorted to calling a poster an idiot.

Truth hurts. PP is an idiot.

It’s possible that PP is a political agitator trying to s on teachers to push some Republican propaganda. But my money is on idiot.

My money is on you trying to push some anti-children liberal propaganda.

I’m a parent of MS and HS kids. Keep your politics out of our schools.

Please tell your school board.

School board isn't pushing politics. Keep your alternate facts out of our school.

Just as soon as you keep yours out.

Being inclusive and teaching *everyone* isn't political.

Because if this crap, teaching isn’t happening. So you strip it away for all children.

Bullcrap. Teaching is happening. There are some barriers, but it's not from being inclusive.

Lying liar. Teaching has been pushed down and you know it or have you head up your ass.

No, I have actual kids in actual schools. Not your BS political lies.

Teaching has taken a tremendous hit because of your political nonsense. You have an agenda and kids are not on the top of it.

Kids are absolutely the top priority for schools. You’re just mad that it’s ALL kids.

Actually, fewer kids are receiving what they need with your politics. That’s certainly further from “ALL kids.”

I’m a parent of MS and HS kids. Keep your politics out of our schools.

Please tell your school board.

School board isn't pushing politics. Keep your alternate facts out of our school.

Just as soon as you keep yours out.

Being inclusive and teaching *everyone* isn't political.

Because if this crap, teaching isn’t happening. So you strip it away for all children.

Bullcrap. Teaching is happening. There are some barriers, but it's not from being inclusive.

Teaching has taken a tremendous hit because of your political nonsense. You have an agenda and kids are not on the top of it.

Kids are absolutely the top priority for schools. You’re just mad that it’s ALL kids.

Are you in La-La Land? If kids were a top priority, we wouldn’t be finding guns inside of schools. Teachers and students wouldn’t be getting assaulted on a regular basis. Please wake up.

Teachers can influence behavior while at school for most. They just don’t want to be bothered often.

No, I see why you might think that, but I cannot undo your parenting. Your influence is the important one.

Neither can parents undo your teaching.

Or, lack of teaching. The teacher just throws the pre-canned Social Studies slides at the students yesterday (67 slides) and tells them to do as many as possible. No teaching, no lecture, no read aloud… That’s teaching folks?

Teachers want to teach. If that’s not happening there is a bigger problem. They can’t fix kids. They can’t fix unrealistic expectations. They can’t do it all. Other people play a role in creating the school environment and child development. Legislatures, school board, administrators, and, yes, even parents all have the more power. The people actually teaching? Unfortunately, not so much. Teachers need to be valued more and given a voice.

They will be valued when they deserve to be.

You are an idiot and a huge part of the problem.

Pot meet kettle.

No, I values teachers and do what I can to support them and their classrooms. I work with my kids at home to respectful and prepared to learn.

I would gladly pay more taxes for better staffing/pay. I support removing superfluous requirements.

Teachers should have more of a voice so we can improve education.

Coming from the righteous one who resorted to calling a poster an idiot.

Truth hurts. PP is an idiot.

DP. I'm sorry but you're not making sense.
