[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“ My 2nd grader’s teacher marks all spelling and grammar mistakes. Even on things like math work. He has to correct it and turn it back in.” This is what ALL kids need. Seriously asking - what are public teachers being made to do / focus on that does not leave them time to do this fundamental work? And then how can we get those other things weeded out? [/quote] Public school teachers have to plow through a ton of sh*t that private school teachers don’t. In my area, public school principals don’t count the number of years of experience at face value if one is applying for a job. I can’t remember the formula but # of years of private \=#of years of public. Private school teachers rarely have to deal will behavioral issues, and, uh, mandatory standardized testing. They also don’t have to deal with huge ability gaps in the classroom, or providing social services to them. How is this news to you??[/quote]
