[quote=Anonymous]Having just pulled my upper elementary student out of CHML, I can speak to how infuriating it is. The students afternoon "work cycle" after lunch consists of nothing. Silent reading, making up work, general chaos. There is MORE than enough time for the teachers to be teaching science as well as social studies, but they do not. In fact, there is hardly any direct instruction at all. The science specialist is a wonderful person, but there were many times students in my kid's class (and speaking with other parents in different rooms, this was standard across the board) couldn't even get to the lesson because of classroom behaviors. This has nothing to do with her and it goes back to the extremely poor administration running the place. There are no consequences, students end up being rewarded for bad behaviors, and students KNOW there will be no consequences. It is not a good school. It is such a chaotic place as are the classrooms on any given day.[/quote]
