[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this a high percentage FARMs school? Poverty leads to terrible behavior. Mainly because it likely means absent parents, homelessness, one parent incarcerated, random relatives raising kids, etc. I went to a “good” suburban public school (2002 high school graduation) Not wealthy, but very few would have been considered low income. I don’t recall any of these problems. No one swore at teachers (during class), threw anything, were destructive, starting fights. It just didn’t happen. The only bad behavior I recall was loitering in halls, sleeping in class, or talking when teacher was teaching. [/quote] I teach in a Title One school in Baltimore City. Except for a few students, our 700+ students are quite well behaved. People comment on it every time they visit. Most students respond to limits. Some require consequences to learn how those limits are enforced. Some students who act out end up with a diagnosis (ADHD, ODD, etc). [/quote]
