teachers

In todays comic strip -Judge Parker - it seems like the teacher was unhappy with Sophia but doing college level work in Junior High. I was supprised when the mother answered back so what. What is wrong with our so called educators that they do not seem to want students to get ahead. What ever the so call ed level is in that class that is what they strive for including knocking students backward.Just think how many students would do better if we had good educators who are trained on psychology and sociology instead of good subject matter. it reminds me of what happened in my family - my daughter wrote a paper on cancer when she was in 7th grade and the teacher refused to send it because of the level of the 7th grade. I talked her into it and she still won 3rd prize. My youngest son was taking band in summer school and was blowing the horn good. He was stuck with hier grade level and one of the instructor found out about his age and stuck him back with the lessor kids. He was never the same person again- why should a child try hard if the so call educator destroys the youth just because they are low level themselves. I was surprised when the comic strip author is taking on the educators. I wrote several years ago is that in the comic strips is one place to upgrade our schools and education even by teaching courses. It is time our schools got a different type of so call educators to lead our children into higher levels and our country to grow higher instead of lower as our so call educators do now. I have rambled enough now. Read Judge Parker- it could be interesting.
