[quote=Anonymous]No. It is none of your business why the teacher is out. The principal approves the leave, s/he knows the situation already. You are not going to enlighten them to something they don't know about. As long as there is a sub in the room, there's nothing else that will be done. As for the short assignments--that's the reality of today's teacher, even one who is present 180 days. There is no time to grade 150 multi page essays. 150 paragraphs already takes 5 hours if they spend 2 minutes on each providing feedback. If you want more in depth writing, you have to find a school set up with a better student:teacher ratio. Maybe that's tutoring. Maybe it's private school. Maybe it's homeschool. It stinks, but it's the reality of today's schools.[/quote]
