[quote=Anonymous]One third grade had a teacher who was returning from maternity leave and had previously been a star teacher for several years at CMI. The other third grade teacher had been star teacher's assistant, and became the head of her own class. Folks say star teacher's star began to fall, she was out of touch, not performing, just not "there" mentally. Teacher number 2 apparently just couldn't handle the classroom, no behaviour management, no authority with the kids, wasn't teaching well, things a mess. School said both teachers asked to leave. At any rate, by January of the school year kids came back from break with four new teachers (new lead teachers and new assistant teachers). Only person that remained was special ed teacher. The year still sucked because one of the new teachers was woefully unprepared, having just graduated from college that August. It was a mess. New teachers were using candy to incentivise positive behaviours. Rumor has it the new teacher hired for fourth grade this year is leaving and the other 4th grade teacher who has been at CMI for at least four years is also leaving. The special ed teacher is gone and was replaced by another who apparently was an assistant teacher and has no special ed experience--but got the certificate to teach special ed in a few months over the summer.[/quote]
