[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll say it: there's very little teaching going on..and teachers are taking on far too many non-teaching responsibilities - communicating with parents, student excessive absenteeism, all sorts of socioeconomic cultural issues, behavior and discipline problems, even seemingly minor health and wellness issues (needing a change of clothes for bathroom accidents or weather changes, coming to school sick, hungry, tired) all with limited school resources. Not at all the teachers' fault. Specialists, administration, everyone is tapped out.[/quote] +100 Until this changes, there is no way things will change. [/quote] It's the same issue in charters. Every year at the DCPS I teach at we receive teachers from the charter school sector in D.C and say they dealt with similar issues if not worse. The only difference is that they do not have to report their findings like DCPS has to do. Both sectors deal with this issue. [/quote]
