[quote=Anonymous]With so many kids from so many countries and so many ESOL and the FARMS increasing yearly, MCPS needs smaller classrooms. The parochial schools can get away with 25-30 kids because they all are from middle class American families. Most of those kids went to the parochial preschool and know the basics and behaviors of school. MCPS kindergarten is a complete disaster. 27 kids and 10 of them ESOL. Some kids reading chapter books and others can't even read one word in English. Communication and culture differences. You couldn't pay me enough to teach there and I learned my lesson after sending one there. She learned nothing she hadn't learned in preschool. The curriculum is for the foreigners. Even in 1st grade, they are going over K word wall words. A, Am, Can, Go. I mean let's move on already and teach the kids that need to be taught. Can we not put all the ESOL kids in their own class with smaller ratios until they are fluent? [/quote]
