[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How will they have the staff to cover lunches in classrooms and enough teachers to cover smaller classes spread out using MS space?[/quote]

It says that they are going to cut out all specials--PE, music, art, etc-- and special education and repurpose those teachers as classroom teachers. [/quote]

That's basically the warm-body theory of teaching.

One of my math teachers was actually the PE teacher. He might have known how to teach PE, but I didn't have him as a PE teacher so I don't know. He certainly did not know how to teach math.[/quote]

The part about special ed teachers is very concerning to us SN parents. What does this mean for our students? Is my kid who is mostly in a self contained classroom now just tossed into a mainstream class of 10 kids taught by his SN teacher?  I realize this is not a long term answer, but for kids who really need SN services, this could be very scary and troublesome. [/quote]

Didn't you read the sentence in the report explaining that now that SN parents have received coaching from school staff, they are totally qualified to do at-home instruction?[/quote]
