@treesunrise Her students outperform nearly all other NYC schools, not just the other public school, but she also beats the private schools. Why would you want kids attending the terrible public schools instead of Harlem Success Academy?
Also, regarding $300k, if teachers would agree to be paid based on merit, some of them might make $300k. They vote for a union that demands they are all the same.
I have no idea who would say "stop" blaming the hardworking teachers but WATCH the movie and then TALK please. This film covers way more than this black and white issue..... However, teachers are PART of the blame.. Not all... but yes.. some are a part to blame..
I would like to see any of them attempt to teach a remedial math class at a junior high in Compton or Watts?
They wouldn’t last a week!
God bless the hard-working dedicated inner city teachers who risk their lives daily! Teaching the children of gang-members,drug-addicts, prostitutes, illegal immigrants, poverty-stricken families, etc. Many times, going beyond the call of duty to help those people!
Teacher "X" teaches 5 classes. He teaches 3 Algebra classes, 1 Advanced Algebra class, and 1 remedial class. His first four classes are okay, but his last class is utter chaos!
Why?
Is it because the class has 43 students instead of 35?
Or maybe because the majority of the students don't speak English?
Could it be that it's late in the day and the kids are tired?
Or maybe, just maybe, the kids are DOWN-RIGHT LAZY?
Stop blaming the hard-working, dedicated teachers!
@MsJanetWood Hard-working, dedicated teachers? I do not think they are blaming the hard-working, dedicated teachers. The problem is that there are so few of those. Take any school and you will find about 10% of those in its entire population. And probably the good ones will end up transformed by the system. My kid is in a private school, attending 12 subjects, and only one of her teachers is a hard-working, dedicated one. And it shows. The other 11 are not bad or lazy, just mediocre.
The kids that talk loud and laugh during the movie! The ones that throw popcorn at the screen! The ones that run up and down the movie aisles. The ones that keep getting up to go to the bathroom! Those kids!
Do you think those kids could sit down for a 45 minute Math Lesson?
They can't sit still during a movie! You think they are going to pay attention to their math teacher?
So, who do we blame? The teacher? The administrators? The parents? Or the kids?
she is so arrogant.... makes over $300,000 to take space from public schools....
