[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Second bolded point: We have trust in educators. We don't have trust in[b] the politicians pushing this program[/b]. Actual, in-the-classroom educators have expressed concerns that they would be unable to engage the full spectrum of math abilities in one classroom. Many have said that they would end up teaching to the lower-middle. The top kids would be ignored and the bottom would flounder without the proper supports. Why aren't the politicians listening to and trusting the teachers? [/quote] Who do you think is pushing this whole movement? Educators. [/quote] VDOE bureaucrats don't count as educators. I want to see a lot of real classroom teachers endorsing this plan before I would agree that it might be a good idea. None of the teachers I've spoken with are enthused at all about this. None of them even think the idea is feasible.[/quote]
