[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Understood.  I think the point is just as you state.  Which makes DC failure that much more a standout.  Money has been spent - results continue to decline.  The leadership is to blame.  And people who allow them to stay in leadership are equally to blame. [/quote]

It's because pouring money into schools won't fix the real problems, which are in the home.  [/quote]

I taught in school is DC that was shut down by Michelle Rhee. I think we need two teachers in each class in high needs schools. Then they can kind of tag team - one dealing with behavior and one continuing teaching. Anyway that’s my best idea. I have been thinking about this for a number of years. [/quote]

I’m a teacher too. You need small class sizes. No more than 15 per class. That way you can help individual students more closely. I have 130 students at the moment. [b]Impossible to give them all what they need[/b] [/quote]

Exactly! Which is why parents have to do it. That simple fact gets bypassed in every discussion about students, schools and education. The parent at home has to have expectations, hold kids accountable, help kids study. If this isn't happening, teachers cannot bridge that gap. Never could, never will. [/quote]
