[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If money was no object, what would schools look like today? How would they do things differently? 1) I think teacher training should be more like what doctors go through. 2) I think there would be 2 shifts of teachers. 7-3 and 10-6. And the early morning and late afternoon would allow kids to join clubs or explore other interests. 3) teachers would have secretaries. You don't have lawyers making their own copies, why should teachers?[/quote] I 100% agree. Except for the addition of teaching aides at a 1:8 aide: kid ratio (kids with IEPs need separate aides not included in that count). No more than 24 kids per class. No per-teacher secretary, but each department gets a secretary. Admin must be in the classroom as a substitute 20 days per school year and maintain a teaching license. minimum 90 minutes of free play/recess for MS and HS. minimum 120 minutes for ES. [/quote]
