[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why should I have to "be involved" in some crappy school I'm forced to go to because I didn't win the lottery to get my kid into a "top tier" charter? My kids deserve a great school, but I'm not an educator or a school administrator. I chose a different career. It's my right to complain if I don't like the school, and it's the school's job to be better. This whole mantra of parent involvement is ridiculous -- why not leave running the school to the people who have chosen running a school as their job? Do your jobs![/quote] Why? Let's see... Hmmm, well maybe because for the time your kid is there it benefits the school for you to channel your concerns re: what you don't like into ideas (however small) for wjat would work better, even if only for your kid's class? But grumbling and complaining and then crossing your arms and saying "Hey school, you chose this as uour career, not my job to fix it. Do your job!", well, that's some lovely role modling you're doing.[/quote] Meant to say VB it benefits the school AND YOUR KID. Not just the school. Even if your kid is just yhere for a month it is still better for kids to have faint improvements kvef no improvements.[/quote]
