[quote=Anonymous][quote]Do you think academic support can be improved, the achievement gap addressed, and quality instruction - including small class sizes - can happen without additional employees? There's a new CDEIO position that everyone insists APS has. He needs staff to do his job. One teacher specialist added to the gifted services office - someone who might help APS actually properly serve gifted students. Math coaches - real people providing direct academic support to students.

Everybody seems to complain that APS is overloaded with central office personnel. I disagree. APS operates, generally speaking, with a skeleton crew for the size and quality of our school system.
I don't even know what an "equity audit" for curriculum even means; so I might be with you there. But if it's just reviewing curriculum for inclusive and honest content, I don't think that requires additional staff; so what's the harm?[/quote]

PP must work at Syphax. Schools do not need a bunch of additional GT and math coaches to lord over the teachers. They need these people to get out of the teachers' way and give them more time to plan.
