WOW! Those prices are in line with what we would pay here and Marion. Where is the Hard Rock Cafe Hotel located, just for curiosity? Didn't know Bristol had a Casino. But, it won't be hard at all to talk me into moving to the Erwin / Johnson City area.
Those are good suggestions…..he is in 5th grade so surely we can find a HS student. When he lived in Knoxville one of the teachers did it on the side and it helped. Math is his cryptonite. We asked about teachers or HS students or college students but they just said they didn’t know of anyone. We just started down this road a few months back so we’ll keep searching. I am from Spartanburg and went to school in the same district. Just thought they would offer a little more help and have some resources to suggest.
That’s the problem. There are no groups just children and all will be treated the same. Get your kids out of this racist segregated system of evil. Don’t participate and become just another victim. Your just a number to them.
You kicked the government out? Great job and all before lunch!! You deserve a gold star. Lol
Asheville is known as little San Fran. Total dumpster fire.
This is a slippery slope. The majority of our students' parents are, themselves, uneducated, whereas, in order to be an educator you must possess at least one advanced degree and have passed national education assessments. Jimmy's mom, who barely graduated high school, has no business critiquing lesson plans. I think it's fine for the lesson plans to be available, but I don't think the majority of viewers would even know what they were looking at.
This is not the fault of teachers. Discipline is now on the State School Report Cards, which means that excessive discipline referrals and suspensions count against the schools. Thus, the schools have had to try to find other ways to deal with kids who are derelicts. Instead of removing the disruptive kids from school, they're basically given a warning and sent back to class, undermining the authority of the teacher.
You. are. wrong. The problem is that they literally don't have enough teachers to fill the vacancies. At my school, we're several teachers short, so we're having to use other teachers who give up their planning time to teach an extra block, or hire long-term substitutes who aren't even certified to teach those subjects. When they say they don't have anybody, they literally don't have anybody in many cases. It's this sort of commentary that is driving teachers out of the schools. We're getting blamed for kids failing when the parents allow thier kids to curse out teachers with impunity. Kids will curse out a teacher and record it on their brand new iphone while wearing a $400 outfit to school and somehow it's the teacher's fault.
Only way to fix public schools is to pull your kids out. It’s coming but will take a minute.
I don't think anyone has ever said that parents don't have a right to know. Any parent can request a parent-teacher conference at any time. The information is available at all times. I agree that, as a parent, you should have access to what your child is learning. However, there are many myths about what is being taught in public schools. All teachers have emails and can be reached by calling the school and setting up a parent-teacher conference.
You're also talking about Seattle, not SC Schools. I was a public school kid and my kids are public school kids. They are learning and excelling in their classes. Like anything else, you can get out of school what you put in. The public schools do have a problem, but it's not really the schools causing the problems. It's the parents who aren't teaching their kids right from wrong and how to respect others. What exactly is a teacher to do when a student is able to curse him/her out and disrupt class without having the support necessary to adequatley discipline the student?
There should be cameras in every classroom streaming all day every day for parents to look in on anytime they need to. Period. Trust no one with your children especially our corrupt government
The teacher should quit and go teach at a private school where that behavior is not tolerated. No way I’d subject myself to public school abuse as a student or a teacher. Zero tolerance
I am stating facts. I don’t blame anyone for not wanting to teach these days. But it aint the kids wanting extra help driving them away. It’s the administration allowing the inmates to run the asylum. And yes, the costant attempts at social indoctrination instead of teaching aren’t helping.
When they are designated as 504 or some such cat it is almost impossible to do anything to them. The law does not allow it because its not their fault but rather a disability that causes the problem.
Good thing that kid at the top doesn't live in my trailer park.For some levity.
The first Thanksgiving was actually a days long festival sort of thing with games and athletic sports of sorts. I wasn’t taught that in public school for some reason.
