Letters: Restore order in classrooms
Saturday, February 12, 2011 3:00 am
From the information I have received from current teachers as well as those who have given up on this profession, the number one change that must happen is to restore order in the classrooms. As it stands right now, children can do anything and everything to disrupt the class and the teacher has only one recourse - send him or her to the principal. And back they come once again disrespectful, loud and even more disrupting. Not to sound like an oldster (and of course I am) but if I had a disagreement with my teacher and was sent to the principal, there would be another punishment awaiting me at home. This is no longer true, and what a shame that is. Disrespectful students are not the only ones that cannot learn, the entire class suffers.
