[quote=Anonymous]It would be different if all students were learning to read well, have basic math skills down, and could write a decent paragraph. But too many students aren’t. I work at two different schools. One principal focuses heavily on academic remediation. She figures out how to bring in retired teachers, volunteers, run programs that all focus on basic academic skills. The other school the principal is all about SEL and “trauma informed instruction”. She spends all the money she can in SEL. The school where kids can actually read, write, and do math has fewer behavior issues because kids feel better about themselves because they are successful at school! Kids seem happier there, teachers are happier, it just had a different feel. [/quote]
