[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last years 6th grade math teacher was horrible. My kid made straight A’s but I still had to get a tutor to make sure she actually learned anything. He is gone now,I think to Jackson Reed. Dr Brito seems pretty good so far but it’s very clear her only focus is on getting struggling students up to grade level. She said geometry would no longer be an option for advanced students at in 8th because any resources need to go to other students. [/quote] Ms. Brito, well, she continues with dumbing-down of the learning experience at OA while preaching an absurd discourse on equality. Her goal seems to be to focus on struggling kids that really need a different intervention: many in upper grades are learning to read when they should be reading to learn! Culprits (in no particular order): "No child left behind", "over protector parents", "parents that expect therapist rather than teachers", "parents that expect miracles without homework/rigor/discipline", "administrators that adopt and foster unproven methods on how children learn (big consultancies, for sure!)", etc. [/quote] .... to add to list: "too many nosy parents" [/quote]
