[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re coming from PBES and I can say with certainty the kids are good kids. My kid has CES and non CES friends and they are all lovely kids. I love the cohort.

About the TPMS magnet teachers: without naming names, are they experienced, charismatic, do they have doctorates? Do they add value to the experience?[/quote]
There was an excellent teacher who unfortunately left this year, and he had a doctorate. The others have masters' degrees, as far as I'm concerned. While I wasn't quite as impressed with the 6th grade teachers, I think they get better in 7th and 8th.[/quote]

The teacher who left may have had knowledge, but his teaching skills were sorely lacking. He could not reach kids in different ways and was highly punitive and rigid while teaching a field that values trial and error. I was glad to see him go.

I think all the science teachers are great and the math teachers are very talented -- really know their stuff. 8th grace CS is excellent.[/quote]
