[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]My honest advice is to deal with the teacher you get.[/b] The grades don’t matter at this age and teaching your child to navigate difficult teachers is a good skill to learn for high school. As for the academic part of it, I think language arts at Navy is really bad whether you get an AAP teacher or PBL one. The entire rollout of benchmark by FCPS has left a lot to be desired and I don’t think many teachers are able to make the work interesting. [/quote] Absolutely not. That is one thing I wish I would have done differently. I wish I had made noise about all the teachers we had heard negative things about to ensure my child didn’t have them. Every single fear that I had heard about came true. Some of the teachers we had were horrific and made the year awful. I noticed the PTA moms got the best teachers, or the moms who made a stink. Thankfully, a lot of the teachers have moved on but a few bad eggs are left. God the stories I could tell![/quote] You can’t bulldoze through life for your kid forever. When you kid doesn’t like their teacher for Spanish or French in high school, you will not be able to get out of it. [/quote] This isn’t a case of your kid jut doesn’t like a teacher. This is a case of the teacher is incompetent and your child is actually harmed by being in that class. The anxiety and mental stress is real.[/quote] +1[/quote] +2 this happened several years for us at Navy. Each time we were warned about that teacher bad it was totally true.[/quote]
