[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It happens at our school and my kids and I really hate it.

The school attempted to control the lunch room by assigning seats across entire grade levels, with the carrot that the kids would be allowed to pick their seats again if they stopped getting up to talk to their friends. It was just about one of the least effective things I can imagine.[/quote]

I blame the school closure the kids forget how to behave in school.  I can't blame them.[/quote]

Yeah, no.

Maybe the first year back. There was a huge adjustment for students and Teachers. The students had to re-learn expected behaviors, class rules, and adjust to a curriculum that was more demanding. But that does not take 4 years. If parents had been supporting Teachers properly, it should have taken half a year, at most. The Teacher calls home or emails that there is an issue. The Parents work with the Teacher to correct the issue. The child learns that the Parents and Teachers are on the same page. Most issues would be resolved.

Instead, the Teacher called the Parents and the Parents either 
1) ignored the phone call 
2) gave the Teacher a BS excuse 
3) told the Teacher they should have been in school last year and no learning online 
4) some combination of the above.

The kids learned that they could get away with crappy behavior and it carried over to the next year and now continues with a group of kids 4 years later.

Stop blaming COVID for everything. [/quote]
