My grandson is in 8th grade at this school. There are 35 students in his class. The teacher admitted that he has that many students every class. He has 8 classes and the school uses the A &B schedule. The teacher told my daughter he does NOT have the time to spend any individual help to any student. They just have to try and keep up. Turn in their paper only if they get one problem correct and then do extra credit. WHAT KIND OF EDUCATION IS THAT? Close Quote
