[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I enjoyed the documentary, and definitely had a positive impression of the teachers. The one thing I noticed was how casually they dressed. On the one hand, I thought they were deliberately wearing college t-shirts from their alma maters to encourage the student. On the other hand, it just seemed really unprofessional to teach a class or come to a staff meeting in t shirt or sweatshirt. I don't remember any of my teachers growing up dressed so casually![/quote] I don't remember my teachers dressing so casually either back in 198-sazerqerf. However, today's a totally different day. Perhaps they're trying to seem more relatable to the kids. These kids seem to need mamas, papas, adult friends almost. The last thing they need are stuffy authority figures in suits and ties. Or perhaps we've come to realize there's so much more important in these schools--like relating to the kids, getting them to attend school, etc.[/quote]
