The true story came from a California Charter School named Pacific Pallisades. The answering machine call was a joke at the time, but sometimes the jokes are as true as the reality.
No,do the school work IN school. Do not give home work to parents to do with your 5 year old child. I’m a parent not a supply teacher. Accept that kids get ill,tired and they work bloody hard. Some teachers are better than others. We will therefore prefer the good ones.
Not everyone can succeed at the exact same level yet most people expect it to work like that. I say let those who have no drive and passion to succeed to stay in their rut of mediocrity, better odds for me. Sad really that ones lack of an urge to rise makes a passionate successful person that much more valuable to industry. But hey, SOMEONE has to flip my burgers!
This is perfect. It’s right. Sure, it’s the teachers job to teach and instill the lesson of life in students, but they can only do so much. If the child neglects the work, and acts as if he is too good for it, then there really is nothing they can do. the kids have to take personal responsibility for learning it just as much as the teachers have to take responsibility in teaching it.
