Marginal teachers who normally would not be hired are now sought out because of the need for teachers in school districts that keep the class size down around 20 to 22 children.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It is amazing. Teens who are taking AP courses need classes with only 20 to 25 students. Then 3 months after graduating they sit in classes of 100 to 400 students.
Also...Why not video the very best and most excellent teachers and put the content on the Internet for access by **anyone** of any age in the state!!! Hey! Don’t the taxpayer pay plenty in taxes why is this information and content confined to a mere 20 to 22 students? Hm?...Maybe if they did film the content of these classes the parents would get to see exactly how much their children are being indoctrinated in Marxism.
Some teacher friends of mine went to see Palin when she spoke at a rally near here. So not all teachers are Marxists!
But you do make a good point. Taxpayers have a right - even a duty - to see what is being taught in their local schools. Schools should make it super-easy for a taxpayer to visit a classroom and observe a lesson.
Not a bad idea, I think I agree with you.
