As a former teacher (36 years experience) I can tell you that a major cause of problems in all public schools is a lack of disciplain. The teacher could be Socretes and if there is no disciplain, no one will ever even hear him or her. This is not the only problem but it is the basic one. How to restore order? Parent involvement is a start but too often it turns negative: the ideas is make everybody's else's kids behave but don't say a word to mine , no matter how they behave. MY children are perfect, everybody else's kids are the ones causing the problem. As long as this attitude persists, we will get nowhere.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-30329993192882346712013-01-22T22:25:18.892-06:002013-01-22T22:25:18.892-06:00Come to the forum at Bingham Friday.

...Interested to see the turnout on the 10pm news. <br /><br />At least the board is trying to get involvement from the parents/families. My question is: are they ever going to act on anything? I'm tired of all the forums and nothing really ever changes. I see no new initiatives or programs--just same old stuff.<br /><br />And is it true that they just recently implemented a parent portal???? The suburban districts have had that for 10+ years.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-86301924705581946322013-01-22T21:41:32.024-06:002013-01-22T21:41:32.024-06:00The forum at Border Star is this Thursday....The forum at Border Star is this Thursday....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-38197875948047745332013-01-22T21:04:41.020-06:002013-01-22T21:04:41.020-06:00This one probably didnt have a high turn out, but ...This one probably didnt have a high turn out, but look at the location.

Just some talking points for real change.
