It was a real eye opening for me when during COVID I saw what was happening in the classrooms. I was appalled. However, the biggest problem not being discussed is the Chromebook. It is nothing but Cliff notes and video games. The quizzets and other assignments are pure jokes. I have had teachers say take this quizzet as many times as needed and I will accept the highest grade. Well of course you take it X number of times you will eventually get all the answers right. Worst of all the students do nothing but Cut Copy and Paste their answers. They are taught through silly videos on youtube that are geared towards 3 year olds and not 16 -17 year olds. My kid, is a straight A student who cannot write a complete sentence, with correct spelling, or grammar. I know this, because I know the Chromebook probably better than he does, and I look at his assignments. Then I ask him to complete the assignments without his Chromebook. No big surprise he can’t answer a single one. Yet he got an A because he submitted a perfectly completed assignment courtesy of Professor Google How could this possibly happen?<br /> Get rid of the Chromebooks bring back books, paper, and pen and teach these kids how to read write and think.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317770170474039861.post-44612113176819959602015-04-09T21:53:15.099-05:002015-04-09T21:53:15.099-05:00I am willing to share my specifics.

Not quite sure about this particular school year, but this has been going on in very recent school years. Instead of being firm with the discipline, they allow chaos to run wild, which of course takes away from class and learning time. If they would get the discipline straight then they wouldn't have to do this. They're just passing kids through to get them out to the next grade, and so on and so on. <br /><br />Everybody ignores the big pink elephant in the room to protect themselves. They fawn over and bootlick administrators to an oblivion. No zero grading has been happening already in Escambia county and it makes the bad kids further feel like they can get away with anything. They don't have to work hard because they know they'll at least get a 50. Hell, it makes them act even worse than before. I felt strange when they made me do it. <br /><br />If a kid has an average of 30 in your class, they'll ask why is this kids average a 30, likes its your fault that the kid isn't doing his work. Something must be wrong with the teacher if the kid has an average of 30.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317770170474039861.post-28913624967233169232015-04-08T23:11:34.065-05:002015-04-08T23:11:34.065-05:00I am a random anonymous person.

He uses emotionally-charged words as a persuasive technique. And he makes his feelings very clear. And they guy men don't have emotions! Just listen to some male politicians! :-P<br /><br />Gotta say, Mr. Bergosh, while I don't always agree with you, your blog is like a soap opera! It's better than "Days of our Lives." Other times I feel like I am reading a school board version of Bill O'Reilly.

They are earning a 100 on assignments as long as something is written on the paper. Per the teacher "assignments are not graded for accuracy, only for participation". The teachers reasoning, she cannot grade that many papers everyday! I have expressed my concerns, especially when my children are making a 100 on every homework assignment and then D or F on tests! They are receiving no feedback on their assignments and in my opinion are being set up for failure! Not to mention parents have no resources to help TEACH their children at home like books- those do not come home with them! <br /><br />My children go to school to EARN a grade and be taught, instead they are just being handed 100's! This is unacceptable!! Charter School Momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317770170474039861.post-39562478308711812602015-04-08T11:51:46.258-05:002015-04-08T11:51:46.258-05:00

You have already done a fantastic job at making sure all of Escambia County is well aware of your feelings on this issue and that it is your personal mission to "run them out of town". I guess that was not enough for you? You want to keep salting wounds? This is obviously very personal to you. And please, it has nothing to do with the students. If it was about the students for you, you would not have posted like you did, creating panic in so many parents and students.<br />This whole situation has been so inappropriately handled it is disgusting. From all parties involved. There is an ongoing investigation. Let it be investigated. Put aside your personal agenda and think about the negative impact all this ranting and public shaming you are participating in is doing to ALL parties involved! Especially the children. <br />It is terrible enough, Put your big boy pants on Mr. Bergosh and get over your hurt feelings and let this be handled by those that need to handle it. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
