[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another issue with cell phones is that students use them to cheat. Kids are constantly texting each other answers to test questions and also try to google answers. Cheating has become an epidemic in MCPS high schools [/quote]

Right because there was never cheating before phones.  Just more creativity. [/quote]

You are right. There was always cheating. This did not start with phones. However, since phones have become so common, it is much, much worse. [/quote]

Then, as a teacher take back your classroom  and start by communicating with those parents interested.  [/quote]

I suspect you’re the same parent who has been combative throughout this thread.

You clearly know how to do our job. I encourage you to join us in the classroom and show us how it’s done. Come “take back a classroom” and put the disruptive students and unsupportive admin in line.

(You won’t, of course. Deep down, you know it’s bad and you know teachers are overworked and abused. Your combativeness does serve a purpose, fortunately. You’re demonstrating one of a teacher’s many frustrations: parents who think this job is easy simply because they sat in a classroom themselves decades ago.)[/quote]

I’d be happy to volunteer in school but our school does not allow parent volunteers.    However, even with all that, your job is to manage your classroom and complaining about things that will not change doesn’t help.  [/quote]

No, no, no. Not “volunteer.” Quit your job, take the pay cut and come teach full time. We’ll wait.[/quote]

Why don't you teach?  [/quote]
