[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sound like you hate it and I can’t imagine what you are like at work with kids and parents. Full of drama I guess. It’s weird that you harp on all this extra work you slave away at but then rationalize that somehow you will still be an excellent teacher if you drop grading and become teacher G or OPs child’s teacher.  You may have the capacity but you won’t be an excellent teacher by doing that. It really isn’t an option at the high school level to not grade so you are just making unnecessary drama. You know OPs teacher is going against FCPS policy and not doing her job well but are throwing a tantrum about unrelated work to this discussion anyway to stir things up. You know you don’t have to do extra grading work because you have OPs teacher as an example of one that doesn’t grade and no repercussions. High schoolers need grades. Thank god for AP classes that have actual tests so teachers and school systems can’t just do whatever they want without getting national recognition through lowered scores.

If you are an English teacher, the state of Virginia actually limits those classes on average for the school to 1:20 because the grading is more intensive. If FCPS is not following that is on them. [/quote]

I find this humorous, too.

Acknowledging there is a problem isn’t a “tantrum.”  I have had classes over 30, so I’d love to know where this 1:20 is actually occurring. [/quote]

You are justifying bad teaching and somehow equating working 20 hours to grade after school as being equal to a teacher who doesn’t grade at all. It’s an irrelevant rant to compare yourself to this teacher who doesn’t grade. [/quote]

This post is filled with trolls. Or, as I suspect, just one replying to 90% of the posts.[/quote]

I wish you Troll sniffers, and other internet sleuthes (eg., bringing up other posts and asking "is this you", etc.) would GTFOH and stop taking up space. A) it doesn't matter and B) you're not the admin. You're not adding anything and aren't half as clever as you think you are. [/quote]

And what value did your post add?[/quote]
