[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our principal recently decided to require teachers to develop assigned seating plans for lunch.  The tables alternate boy/girl and it appears that children have been deliberately separated from their friends.  Two grades have already been assigned and I'm wondering if the rest of the grades will follow.  The kids were told that they are being too loud, and that is why they have gone to an assigned seating arrangement.  Is this how lunch is done at other FCPS elementary schools--especially for the older children?  [/quote]

Is this at Colvin Run, by any chance?  My DC goes there and the fourth grade (not sure about the other grades) has recently been seated as you described.  But only the Gen Ed classes, not AAP, so that adds a whole additional layer of absurdity and unfairness.  Why persist in punishing entire classes for the disruption of a few?  My child has been miserable at lunch, unable to sit with friends and just relax for a short time.  DH and I are ready to confront the administation over this.  [/quote]
