One would hope there was some communication between parents and students and parents would be screaming as loudly as teachers...<br /><br />Anonymous--<br /> CTA DOES know what's going on with teachers--we're TELLING them!!! Bet you're right about ME, and her pals..with all their $$, they'll head for the hills and we'll be left STILL underfunded and overworked.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903698425036113784.post-78165072768018000232010-01-25T23:59:09.465-05:002010-01-25T23:59:09.465-05:00I am ready to drop HCTA like a hot potato. Future ...I am ready to drop HCTA like a hot potato. Future negotiations are going to be all about "smoke and mirrors." Jean and Mary Ellen seem to be star-struck and have no idea how the rank and file are struggling under the weight of these unproven iniatives. I'm betting Mary Ellen will abandon ship midway thru this grant and most of the people who pursued the Gates grant will have "dropped" into retirement.

We all do much more paperwork that has little to do with real education and eother grade fewer assignments &/or less rgoroughly. Not good for the students. Not good for the teachers. Not good for Hillsborough's reputation. It has to stop, but, until folks at the top get real,and make the necessary changes, things will only get even worse. I'm so glad my childrn graduated from high school 6 years ago.THEY got a good education that has served them well. <br />teachermomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
