[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hearst parent here. I’m not as thrilled about it as others. I think it’s ok but definitely not great. They’ve gotten rid of birthday celebrations and Halloween this year for all grades. Before people start piling on with its only a birthday blah blah blah....it’s also an elementary school. This isn’t college and it should be fun. The principals rationale was it makes us lose instructional time. So just be prepared that’s it’s probably quite different than Mann [/quote] Hearst has a stubborn 40 point ELA achievement gap between its black and white students, and a 20 point gap between boys and girls on PARCC. So there is a need to improve performance. Birthday celebrations are a nightmare for teachers and not all that much fun for kid; simply an excuse to eat.[/quote]
