What people are saying

by a teacher
Monday, August 20, 2012

the shchool is out of control. the students for some reason believe they are doing well. all students seem to be poor achieving. i suspect that at least one of the small schools is made up entirely of special education students.these students are being taught by regular education teachers in large class room settings

we are not aware of students who have IEP MODIFICATIONS

we don't have a chance.

behavior problems
learning disabilities emotional problems, , we run the gammut. all in the same classes. we are not trained to handle this type of situation. it's the same in most comprehensive high schools Close Quote
