[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I really don't understand the APS apologists. We all agree that APS teachers were unhappy this year, right? They got poor info from administrators and a constantly changing story. The tech was terrible. The RTS planning atrocious. Disorganized and ever changing. [b]So why is it so hard to believe that many teachers had terrible morale and underperformed?[/b] There was no incentive to do better. There was no enthusiasm. It was a long and terrible slog. I'm sure some with a naturally peppy disposition managed to keep their pep, but that surely wasn't universal.[/quote]

[b]Oh, I see, we are judging teacher quality on how "peppy" teachers are.[/b] [/quote]

Yes, the entitled parents are judging on exactly that.  Any time a teacher has said that they had kids not showing up, turning off their cameras and peacing out instead of doing their work or paying attention, the hysteri-mommies came rushing out of the woodwork to tell them that "my precious snowflake would participate if only YOU WERE MORE ENGAGING" (read:  entertaining, dancing and cavorting like a party clown, and somehow magically able to compete with lack of parenting, lack of supervision, lack of clearly enforced parental expectations, oh, and video games and YouTube).[/quote]
