Not too long ago, certain young people, like former D.C. child baron Michelle Rhee, were picked up from their Ivy League graduations in Teach for America warplanes and parachuted onto schools in low-income areas, which, according to them, suddenly made them experts on the "education crisis."
Oh, I'm not saying some of them don't do a good job...just the ones I had experience with passed along kids with marginal skills...but great grades.
...considering that I had a tendency to combine my "slackerdom" and flirting it is definitely a possibility! You arent that semi-nerdy yet extremely hot blonde from my finance class are you?
Everyone realizes that American test scores include special ed. kids, right?
I administered the same state tests to my students classified M.R. as the kids in AP classes took.
There's a separate test for kids with severe disabilities, but I had 9th kids in my class with IQs in the 60s and 2nd grade reading levels taking the regular state test (with modifications being extended time, testing in a small group).
A lot of people surely did something different in order for them to have good scores on their education. Such that, there are still some people who implemented new techniques on how are they going to improve someone's experience in learning.
Former teacher here...I now sell insurance if that tells you anything. I miss <i>teaching</i>, but not the bullshit that goes along with it. If I EVER have to answer to another principal/administrator/superintendent again I.will.puke.blood.
That seems to work for the evangelical private schools in this country. I used to teach at-risk teens and a fair number of them came from the local Billy Ray Jim Bob School of the Spirit and Reel Pit BBQ. Most of them couldn&#039;t to basic math or read at grade level, yet they seemed to have very nice transcripts.
YMMV

A-fucking-men
Don&#039;t blame the standardized tests on the teachers. We hated them more than you did.
You always know the right words.

...if you are a kid and you are fired, can you collect unemployment?
