[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a teacher with HCPS, I have a large say of who is and who is not in my class. [/quote] This, in my experiences, depends on how tight you are with the counselors. I had a brilliant student in my 9 honors English years ago, for example, who was enrolled in a semester B class with a very under-performing teacher. Because the counselor and I had a good working relationship, it was easy enough to flip the student's schedule so that he would return to me. This easy flip isn't always the case, however, especially if there's a singleton course that locks up the schedule. Trust me when I say that good teachers do what they can to work around the bad teachers, as they tarnish our reputation in the eyes of the public. I have to say this, HCPS teacher, that determining which kids to weed out, if that's your point, is indeed very unprofessional. [/quote]
