“Resource room teacher”? She’s in charge of the audio/visual equipment, right? That’s who we always checked with to find out who was intelligent and who was not.
Nope, these days *resource room* teachers are for the (allegedly) slow kids who get pulled out of class and are given preferential treatment when it comes to classwork and assistance.
Resource room teacher is a “special educator” that works with students on IEPs, low performing students, or impaired students.
