[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers in MCPS are totally overwhelmed. Our curriculum is hard to teach, and we get very limited resources that are ready-to-use (most things you'll see are teacher-made or printed off the internet). I admit that parent communication is one of the things I am weak in. But I'm grading and planning for hours every day. (BTW, I teach second grade, but it's been like this in the three other ES grades I've taught).

Request a conference and if you get no response, contact the principal and let him/her know what's going on. If the teacher is not doing his/her job, you have a right to say so. But let her know what you are looking for. I would hope that a teacher would respond to a conference request immediately. Do you get report cards and progress reports? Friday folder reports? Do you mind sharing what school this is?[/quote]

I am curious, do the teachers complain?  The curriculum is awful and like you said, there is no workbooks, textbooks, reading books.  I can not believe the entire county leaves the teacher up to make print outs online.  I used to work in the school all the time and the printer would go down all the time and the teachers were kinda be left with nothing to give.  I think this is ridiculous. [/quote]
