Loudest doesn't mean wrong....
By RichmondTchr

Clip to ScrapBook   
We agree actually. Unfortunately in NYC all decisions were made from the top down. Where I am now, same thing. Decisions are made from the top down, with NO, I mean ZERO, ZILCH, NADDA, NONE, input from the people who are
actually in the trenches.

Your experience with change from bottom up is unique in my years of teaching. In all my years, I've never seen a change spring from the bottom and work its way up, no matter how well, or calmly, professionally, or yes, even LOUDLY, it was stated.

Back on topic, PLCs SOUND wonderful...in ideallic systems/situations. Now, how many people teach
in Eutopia? And, btw, who does it put the onus on, AGAIN, to achieve results using this wonderful new approach? Yep....the grunts in the trenches....we teachers.
