[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid has had amazing teachers at our Title 1 school. But again, I think they may have more influence on kids who aren’t getting anything at home. So teachers do matter but as the gap grows even the best teachers can differentiate. 2-3 grade levels of students in one class. [/quote] so you're ok with mediocre teachers for your kid? this is kind of a bizarro world now. [/quote] No I’m not ok. But not every teacher is going to amazing. The point is that kid can withstand that because she has so much parental support. Teachers are doing impossible work. Kids who have never been read to, don’t get enough food or have safe home environments are not coming to school ready to learn. These kids need massive social work wrap around services. We expect teachers to do too much and they are leaving the profession in droves.[/quote]
