[quote=Anonymous]It depends on the school. When I first started, they put all of the new kids in my English class as if the English teacher across the hall didn't exist. We both started with an average class size of 25, but by year's end I had around 35 in each class while she only had 27. She was good friends with the counselor in charge of building the schedules. At my current school, the kids are in cohorts for the most part. The worst kept secret is that they're grouped by behavior and aptitude. When new kids come in, "someone" looks at their grades and test scores from their previous school and assigns them to the appropriate cohort. The brand new teachers always end up with the worst behaved, lowest functioning group. [/quote]
