[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would really like to see a poll of principals and teachers to see what their top priorities for the new superintendent are. My guess would be: 1) bring back SROs and increase security staffing at HS and MS 2) minimize curriculum chanrges and give teachers more flexibility in implementing curriculum 3) more and better training on specific content/curricula rather than on mental health, diversity, etc. 4) a realistic alternative for HS students who engage in chronically disruptive or violent behavior 5) increase pay for and recruitment of substitutes and bring in central staff office where subs unavailable so teachers aren’t doubling up on classes when their colleagues are sick, and can take the leave they have without feeling guilty. [/quote] I would be curious about this list from an actual principal. [/quote] Write, reach out to your council member to bring back SROs if that is what you want. Write to Jawando 's office, protest outside if he is the one who voted against having SROs. Write to Elrich, protest outside his office, their meetings. Start a petition to bring back SROs. Propose a SRO-lite program (social services focused) since historically persons of color are disproportionately targeted by SROs. Reach out to MCCPTA for them to advocate on behalf of our most precious gems! Encourage local universities to start Social Work programs that graduate more qualified social workers and encourage social workers to stay in MoCo to work in our communities. As with any service oriented industries, social workers are burnt out. There are many things we can ALL do! [/quote]
