[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you to all the high-school teachers, especially those who teach seniors. I can't imagine how dispiriting it must be to do your thing every day knowing that many students are only half listening and barely engaged (regardless of your skills or the effort you put in). I keep reminding my DC to try to participate more and appreciate the effort involved in teaching faceless students who the teacher may never meet in person. I overhear some of the lessons and I know teachers are really trying.[/quote] I’m a high school teacher. My kids are awesome. I know they’re tired and over it but damn, they’re still showing up each day, hanging in there with me. I just know I’d have loved teaching them in a “regular” class and hope I get to loop with some of them next year when they move up a grade. All respect in the world to these kids and everything they’ve been through and put up with. [/quote] PP here. That's so nice of you to say! I'm a bit sad that my DD didn't have the opportunity to really connect with her teachers and won't get another chance to do so as she is headed to college. I had several wonderful teachers in HS who made such a big impact on me, primarily in the last two years of HS. It's too bad my DD won't have the same. Thank you for your positive attitude, anyway![/quote]
