It happens every day and is disconcerting to say the least. <br /><br />The emphasis for the student, parents, school coaches and administrators has become the sport and not the class room for such students. <br /><br />At least maybe they'll go on to make some "real" money.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-40243822291281735762014-06-05T19:57:00.624-04:002014-06-05T19:57:00.624-04:003:54 Lord forbid if we stepped in early to interve...3:54 Lord forbid if we stepped in early to intervene on behalf of a child when you have a far higher chance of success and the child would not realize they are such a loser by the time they hit older grades.

Teachers should just teach 3 different ways the same lesson to the 28 students(differentiated instruction) by breaking them up into groups. Let's not forget the mentally ill & mentally disabled students whose parents refuse to have their child tested. An example of that would be the student with a low IQ with a 3rd of 4th grade level who has been passed along and is in high school on a college track.<br />The best part!..that child's test score counts against the teacher.

Why are there numerous student athletes within CMS schools who do not live in the district and school officials and administrators know this, all while displacing current CMS student athletes. When is CMS going to comply with the athletic rules? Do they want to enhance their athletic programs and coaching staffs with disregard to the rules? Winning must be very important.<br /><br />I completely understand why parents, and teachers are frustrated with CMS administration. Ann, Is there a hotline where these cases can be disclosed anonymously?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-60280166626116771902014-06-05T13:26:07.324-04:002014-06-05T13:26:07.324-04:00MIE doesn't need a principal.

When I was in school a troublemaker was sent to alternative school where they had more intense training on behavior and removed them from the class as it is not productive for anyone. <br /><br />If that is not an option then go the more modern day route: call in the parents (or likely parent), if the parent(s) can't control them call police and DSS. These are still minors and if they are that troubled then DSS needs to get involved period. It is not the schools responsibility to try to control them it is their parent(s), then police, then the state/DSS. Maybe then the state and county will wake up and realize these issues in schools and start realizing they need to do more outside of school with programs etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-28622191412378636152014-06-05T11:35:14.183-04:002014-06-05T11:35:14.183-04:00So when was it decided to move MIE's principal...So when was it decided to move MIE's principal without naming a replacement?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-34974301879915892362014-06-05T10:38:41.203-04:002014-06-05T10:38:41.203-04:00Take back our schools - couldn't agree more.

They got this one because they will not suspend a student for any reason. One teacher has had emergency room visits and has touted a back eye from the same student. Several stduents in the clase have had injuries due to this student. Yet this student is allowed to harass and bully the students and the teacher with no consequence the last half of the year.Take back our schoolsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-87016514570272562152014-06-05T10:08:23.616-04:002014-06-05T10:08:23.616-04:00Where did this concept of differentiated instructi...Where did this concept of differentiated instruction come from?

In this instance an uncontrollable student was sent to the principal’s office. The student came back with a COOKIE. <br /><br />Talk about the wrong message being given to the student…and the teacher! Be uncooperative. Get a cookie.<br /><br />Fortunately, that principal is gone.<br /><br />BEST CASE<br />Last fall I was at the Endhaven PTA’s introduction to the new principal. He spent much time explaining the three steps of his discipline policy. A trip to the office was what it was suppose to be. Cookies were not part of the corrective actions. Some very happy parents that left that meeting. <br /><br />Most of us don’t get to see what goes on at schools. So the survey and the reporting of it are important. I hope no teacher ever thinks it is not worth the time to fill it out.<br /><br />Bolyn McClung<br />Pineville<br />.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05404611851984737013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-87829484757666937062014-06-05T07:38:11.683-04:002014-06-05T07:38:11.683-04:00Even if there was 100% compliance on the disciplin...Even if there was 100% compliance on the discipline survey, the results mean nothing.<br /><br />Perhaps that's why many teachers didn't reply.<br /><br />Ann has also posted discipline statistics that show there is a problem, stats that have to be reported to the state.<br /><br />We've also discussed one particular kid who was suspended 13 times in one year.<br /><br />Filling out surveys and factual statistics mean nothing if you don't act on what the data tells you.<br /><br /><br /><br />Wiley Coyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16966764080565903720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-91829383962947576632014-06-05T07:06:26.609-04:002014-06-05T07:06:26.609-04:00This is all coming from DC.
