[quote=Anonymous]I have a question for the certified LTS' on this thread.

I have two kids.  In their recent/current ES school careers, they each had one year with a LTS.  Both cases involved a pregnant regular teacher. so the situation was known before school started in September.

In each instance, both of the LTS classes seemed to accumulate a more than usual collection of difficult kids, which caused problems for my kids and some of the other kids.  My kids are not angels, but in every other year my kid did fine no matter the classmates or the teacher.  The LTS years were terrible before the LTS and after.  This is not just me saying this, but I also heard it from other teachers and parents at the school.

My question is whether this was just a random bad draw of kids in LTS years or over the summer do the regular teachers put all the difficult kids in the class that one of them will only teach part of the year.   In other words, the one teacher will take one for the team in a part-time year.  Of course, I do wonder about why my kids were in this class both years, but the school always assured me that my kids were not causing problems :-).

IS this just a conspiracy theory run amok?[/quote]
