[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It usually works better at the high school level to have teachers with degrees in the subject matter that they teach, however at the early childhood and elementary level there is way too much developmental knowledge and methods knowledge needed to be successful. I would be very uncomfortable having my child in an elementary class where the teacher did not hold at least one degree in education. However, you are correct. There are some strong teachers without credentials and weak ones with them. The thing in DC is that under IMPACT the weak teachers do not get to stay. Tenure is a thing of the past. DCPS teachers who are weak are forced to leave (thanks Michelle).[/quote] Yes thankfully she has been gone for a long time. She created worse conditions at many schools; maybe not yours.. Or did you have kids in the system at that time? [/quote]
