[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m totally cool with her not ever being a teacher.

We don’t need someone that’s been brainwashed to believe Lucy Caulkins reading methods and math worksheets printed off the internet are gold standard teaching methods.

Oh gross. Is she a Lucy Caulkins supporter? That should disqualify her immediately.

No.

The pp’s are complaining that she’s never been a teacher. I’m saying that does not bother me at all since teachers around here have been brainwashed into the Lucy Caulkins methods and believing they teach math well with printouts from the internet.

Having someone from outside the classroom looking at this from an analytical perspective, such as this new appointment, is a welcome change. Objectively seeing what works and what doesn’t, rather than getting caught up in the cycle of chasing ridiculous learning ‘theories’ to keep teachers engaged rather than focusing on learning that keeps students engaged.
