[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the school and the teacher. A new teacher with a supportive mentor and administration will get the support she needs to figure out the sol's and get them taught. A new teacher just kind of thrown in there with little hands on support will probably have a tough time with the sols - I mean, I've met new teachers who didn't even know what sol's were. Still, some of those new teachers, in spite of being a little weak sol-wise, were really enthusiastic and were great teachers in many other ways. And plenty of experienced teachers are bitter and burned out. So you are right that if you are concerned about your child learning specific sol's you should probably take the initiative and do some work yourself at home, especially in math. But I wouldn't be too concerned - newness just isn't really the defining factor in being a good teacher. [/quote]
