[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers know. Anyone who has been teaching for 10+ years has seen decline. Teachers are told to “differentiate” instruction. It’s possible, but it is causing many talented, hard-working teachers to leave the profession. It is next to impossible to meet the needs of all the learners in a given classroom - especially when some of them do not even speak the language. [b]Not only do many of these students not speak English, many are illiterate in their native tongue. [/b] There is no way I could be an effective teacher today. ~ Former FCPS teacher [/quote] This. Emphasis mine. Also, these students have [b]parents[/b] who are also illiterate in their native language. Or, they are legally emancipated; that is, there IS no adult guardian. And, we have 17 or 18 year old freshman or sophomores Also, if you'd like to know who receives free and reduced price lunches, ask your elementary student. Your student notices and observes. And, even older teen high school students who can't speak or understand any English. None. How do they graduate? Ask any FCPS high school student. The "Hispanic kids" all hang out and do not affiliate in any way with non Hispanic students. Forget assimilation. We're back to segregation in some ways. [/quote] Sounds like you are all complaining about ESOL and/or FARMs kids. The vast majority of which are here legally BTW. [/quote]
