[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pyle teachers hate the one third top/middle/bottom student classes. Everyone just sits there! The pod system is too big to form a sense of community, with no ability tracking there is a different set of 30 kids in each of your 7 classes. [/quote] I agree that the Pyle teachers probably didn't have any say in moving from leveled classes to mixed classes. The benefits of mixed ability level classes are all around scheduling when it comes down to it. Mixed classes make sense for administrators, not educators. [/quote] Pyle leadership does not understand the Pyle community. And before anyone jumps to the conclusion that I'm just another helicopter parent, my kid won't get to take those advanced classes. There's a glaring tone deafness around parents' priorities. The change coming now is in response to a directive from above, not because they're finally taking parents concerns seriously. I guess that's what it takes. [/quote]
