[quote=Anonymous][quote]There are many things OP could do to help the teacher. Bring on an instructional coach to provide support, get the team to collectively support the teacher, introduce the teacher to others in the building who might be able to provide assistance, particularly if the new teacher has a lot of SPED students (major paperwork, fwiw). There are things she can do beyond what she has identified. But she's pretty much settled into her opinion of the situation and I just see it going as she believes it to be.[/quote]

We really don't know the circumstances.

I remember once that our school (not FCPS) had a teacher assigned to us on probation from another school.  The teacher was high strung and very tense---I'm not sure what happened at the other school, but she really was kind of a basket case.  Was it because of earlier treatment, or just her makeup?  I don't know.  I did not know her before.

I do know that she was on a team with kind, caring teachers who tried to help her.  She would not accept their help.  It could have been a bad experience in the past or it could have just been her nature.  She was fired at the end of the year.  The issue was classroom management.  Parents were demanding to pull their kids from her class.[/quote]
