[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Four sixth grades at my child's ES. Smallest class is 28 kids. It's way too crowded.[/quote] 6th grade teacher here. It varies by year depending on size of grade level. Last year we had 27-29 kids per class. This year we have 17-20. Same number of teachers. Next year we could be back to higher numbers. I hate the staffing formula because they just lump 1-6 together and then the principal decides how to allocate in the different grade levels. IMO, the staffing formula should go by grade. No class should be larger than 25 kids. [/quote] There actually are divisions between K being separate and then 1-3 and then 4-6. The staffing formula and the state formula and that is how they present it to the public and state. I think it comes out as a spreadsheet in November that fcps presents to the public and to the state their compliance with their own regulations and state regulations. [/quote]
