[quote=Anonymous]As an APS teacher, I actually shed a tear over this one. DeVos has never had a child in public school, has never had an education-related job, and has little to no experience with the modern trends in education and teacher training. I'm not sure what I'm hoping for at this point, but it pushes us back into a trend where we want to see schools run "like businesses" and therefore keep bringing in individuals with no training in child psychology or development, and make them the decision-makers over those that do. This happens at a local level, obviously, as well. Anyway, I didn't mean to rant. Only to say that I'm also upset and interested to see how this affects us, if at all.[/quote]
