[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ballou has no student who is proficient in math and 2% proficient in English. What's the point of pretending it's a school. Just call it a day care facility and get people in there who can stop the kids from harming each other, even if they can't teach. [/quote] What actually happens in these classrooms? Are the kids just doing remedial stuff or is the teacher teaching and the kids just f--ing off and not paying attention?[/quote] On-level DCPS classes (in my experience) are truly wild. Not only is essentially nobody paying attention, but many of the kids are just off doing their own things or talking. In some classes, other students will enter from the hallway, go through the classroom saying hi to all their friends while the teacher asks them continuously to leave, and then walk out the door. This can happen multiple times in a 90 minute class. [/quote]
