[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t catch what grade this is, but COVID did a number on some kids’ socialization skills and teachers are seeing a lot of behaviors. That combined with MCPS limiting how teachers can remove kids having a hard time from classrooms, it makes hard situations for one kid hard for the entire class a lot of times. The county listens to parents’ concerns much more than teacher’s concerns (it is messed up but true) so if you can 1) support the teacher however you can 2) document anytime your child’s learning is impacted 3) invite other parents to observe and volunteer and 4) share your observations with admin often - that may move things along a little faster to get the teacher the support they need. I would absolutely consider requesting a classroom change for my kids if things don’t improve. [/quote]

I was about to mention Covid as well but stopped. We are now far enough removed from it for behaviors to stabilize or even improve from the unnecessarily-prolonged lockdown. MCPS needs to stop coddling disruptive kids - period. Some of the old school, non corporal punishment disciplinary methods worked well, but MCPS removed them over the years. [/quote]

Which ones did they remove?[/quote]
