[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Then what happens when your student is put in special ed setting but starts to fall behind due to slower pacing. Are you okay with that? When is that time going to be made up?[/quote]

PP suggested increased funding and resources for higher-need classrooms. Smaller class sizes, more tutoring, summer school, etc.

But the fact remains, slow forward progress is better than no progress at all. It certainly beats sitting in a classroom and having to move on to the next topic despite not understanding the material that’s already been presented.[/quote]

Increased funding and resources from where? [/quote]

You’re very combative for someone who has no ideas of their own!

I know you think I’m MAGA, but you’re wrong. I’ve always supported fully funded schools. In addition to increased government funding, we can shift things around in our budget. Slash certain central office positions to start. I’d also — gasp — get rid of option programs if I could. Completely eliminate Montessori, Spanish immersion, HB, and whatever Campbell is. Keep Arlington Tech for the trade school route (because there is no shame in trade work!), but eliminate the fluff programs they’ve added (Vet, PT… these aren’t real programs unless you go to an actual college). Get rid of ATS but use their model at all of our elementary schools.

We would find a ton of money just by shifting things around. [/quote]

Take a breath PP. 
How is it combative to ask a question? [/quote]

That’s all you do. Criticize others and ask pointless questions. Do you actually have any ideas of your own?

If not, why not crawl back in that hole you came out of.[/quote]
