@Podvesker Our local measure is now Sandi FAST, a completely unvalidated/ not norm referenced checklist. Now it is 40% instead of just 20%

[MsSpEducateNYC @msspeducate]

@ChalkbeatNY @UFTUnity @UFT & admins have foolishly been saying this, dont believe it till its in law and locals are actually worse for D75

[Chalkbeat New York @ChalkbeatNY]

To hear most education officials tell it, teacher evals in NY state have come to a screeching halt. (They haven't.) https://t.co/KpBJoV3fbe

@santydlv Thats pathetic, especially when your entire job revolves around communication devices

The troubling part is that this note is from my son's #district75 special Ed teacher #fail #nycdoe #nyceducation

[MsSpEducateNYC @msspeducate]

Nothing like Conference day to remind you why #District75 needs to go, our #NYC kids deserve much better. #endthesegregation Who's with me?

@AFCNewYork @ChalkbeatNY it'll be interesting to survey teachers and see if the reports match what is actually happening behind doors

[MsSpEducateNYC @msspeducate]

@AFCNewYork Parents have false sense of choice at transitions when they need to be fighting for better programs overall

[MsSpEducateNYC @msspeducate]

@AFCNewYork Either way, there really is no choice in D75, it's controlled internally in schools keeping their own and by placement office

@BrianLehrer @nyusteinhardt This is a NYC DOE created crisis because of the way they allow all therapists to structure their schedules.

[MsSpEducateNYC @msspeducate]

@BrianLehrer @nyusteinhardt What's the average DOE caseload? Can't possibly be higher than the avg special Ed teacher.

[MsSpEducateNYC @msspeducate]

@BrianLehrer @nyusteinhardt How about they work more than 20 hours a week with a students?!

[The Brian Lehrer Show and A Daily Politics Podcast @BrianLehrer]
