[quote=Anonymous]I’m not the ability tracking poster. I agree there’s only so much one can do as the system isn’t separating kids by ability. I think part of Nardi’s problem is that he may not realize how much that matters to certain groups of people. It was too obvious he was opposed, but not clear why. I’ve personally been disappointed that there’s not a lot of substance/action. I know some awesome parents who tried last year to tactfully help him understand what he needed to do to be in tune with the community, but he just couldn’t do it. Again, who knows why. I don’t know if he gets overwhelmed or has people on his staff who advise against the recommendations. If he does have blockers on staff, he really needs to stop listening to them because they’re not in touch with the community and are going to hold him back. Meanwhile other middle schools are doing what many of us hoped to see at Pyle, and with great success. Grr. Frustrating. And of course now the county is behind some more GT classes. My kid won’t get to take those, but I think it’s important they exist. It may be too late for Nardi, but if he wants to try to turn it around, he needs to get his staff focused on building community, look at the teaming differently, and clean house of a few terrible teachers. I’m SURE he knows who they are and what he needs to do.
