[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did a trial teaching day there years ago, applying for a job, and I was blown away by the freewheeling-ness. Kids in the hall on the floor, kids sprawled all over, kids openly doing other things during the lesson. Really minimal behavior expectations, IMO, compared to other environments I’d taught in. I loved the teaching staff I met and see how some kids would thrive there but it would not have been a good fit for me as a kid. [/quote] I am not sure my description gets it across but at the time a lot of the behavior struck me as rude / verbally-aggressive, especially from some of the boys. Not just self-advocacy, but something beyond that. It wasn’t just non-traditional seating arrangements that bothered me. [/quote]
