[quote=Anonymous]Went to DC high school back to school night where you meet each teacher and listen to a little blurb about their class. Most were lovely! My daughter's honors math teacher literally got up (after 85% of the students had outright failed her first quiz on the first partial chapter) and said "This is honors mathematics. We move fast. The kids are confused. We won't slow down". She then went on to tell us all the wonderful technological advances in the mathematics department this year and finished with "But I'm old-fashioned and will teach as I normally do". I was shocked! When 85% of students fail your first quiz, that's a reflection on you, the teacher. She turned it on the kids. [/quote]
