[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Long term subs are usually experienced teachers. Is this a recent graduate?[/quote]

That was back before the iPhone ruined children. I taught in the early 2000s. I saw the slide. I would never long term sub. [/quote]

This has nothing to do with phones.  Parents checked out when teachers and admin made it clear they didn't want parental involvement, not enough specialized programs, no consequences at school, dumbed-down curriculum, and more.[/quote]

Teachers have no control over which programs a school offers, whether or not there are consequences at school, the strength of the county’s curriculum, etc.

Teachers have to wade through all this and see what they can deliver to children in spite of these roadblocks created by the county.

I am aware it’s easy to hold teachers up as the problem, but that is often not accurate. Teachers hold very little voice or power, and often get discouraged when they are blamed for the many things out of their control. [/quote]

Teachers control their classroom.  They set expectations, hold kids accountable and have flexibility over the base curriculum.  Our teachers aren't using all MCPS curriculum.  One bought it off the internet.[/quote]
