Hi Zahrah. How be you?

Sleepy, I think I slept in a weird position so my neck is a little stiff, and looking forward to the weekend.

How about you?

It's annoying... The teachers are basically fighting now so they don't get evaluated a certain way right now... The state wanted to put in place an evaluation system that allows underperforming teacers to be let go... In a way it really does need to be changed though because it's based off of student performance but there does need to be some sort of evaluation in place... the city already caved on salary though but I'm not sure about the hours... basically they say its for the kids but its really for the teachers lol..

Edit: CPS headquarters is right across the street from where I work too... They came out in full force around 3:30 yesterday and caused all sorts of traffic messes by blocking off streets and such lol... they're trying to be as big a pain as possible with regard for no one really lol..

Then the teachers at your university are mentally handicapped if they can't broker a deal that lasts more than a year lol...

Wait, you guys don't have student evaluations, Flav?

edit:
The strike lasts like 3-4 days. Always happens around the same time each year. Teachers want more pay, administration says "lolNO!" teagers go "okay .-." and classes start.

They did try pushing it 2 years ago but in the end, nothing really changed, I don't think.

They don't evaluate the teachers... They need to put in a viable way to evaluate all teachers in a fair manor and be able to use that as grounds to fire them... because right now once a teacher reaches tenure... unless they *** up royally they can pretty much come to school and pretend to teach and you can't do ***about it...

Foreman or Crockpot makes my life much more manageable. I have 21 credit hours, 15 work hours, and my own small business. Time is not a luxury I have much of.

Teachers should be paid more and school should be less like a daycare, since it's not a daycare. Let them focus on educating kids. More parents need to ACTUALLY be parents and stop blaming all of little Johnny/Jeanie's problems on everyone else. We have a highschool kid who works here and goes where I went. Every time he talks about how the school is run now, I cringe :/

<.< Just my thoughts anyway.

Shouldn't they be fighting for the evaluations? I mean wouldn't saying your against it basically say "I want to be lazy at my job!"?

Living in a state/area that does evaluations on teachers/professors, it won't get them fired but I think they get to read the suggestions after the grades are turned in and it seems like sometimes, they get better with it.

Flav, come to a Michigan university like Michigan State or UofMichigan, hell even Wayne State Univeristy is a good one (none of those I go to but they're good schools)

You will probably get better teachers for the money you pay. Or if you want one close to Chicago, you can go to Grand Valley State University in the Western part of Michigan.

It depends on how the evaluation is done, really. If the evaluation is flawed, then it is more beneficial to not get evaluated. I think he said they evaluate the students, and not the teachers. They are fighting that evaluation, unless I read it wrong.

Yeah! It sounded similar to what happened here a few years ago, but they were closing under-performing schools too.

Why were they at Child Protective Services?

Why should they be paid more? Teachers in Chicago are among the higest paid in the nation... on average they make $76,000 and only work 8-9 months with expanded opportunites to make more money coaching, taking over extracarriculars or even taking other jobs when they're not working... They also have a shorter work day and they're not the only ones that bring work home with them...

There is also enough blame to go around... the administration and teachers need to change as well... you can't just say oh these parents are ***so we can't do anything... let's give up... What about the kids that are failed that have supportive parents? or are the ones that fail only come from ***families? like I said there is enough blame to go around but you can't only focus on one side and act like there aren't teachers out there that underperform or or only in this for a career... not every teacher is out to inspire or loves children... I'm sure we've all had many that seem to hate us when we were students lol... but there are also those that do work very hard and love the kids they work with...
