@DrTchr #WMM12 parent involvement is crucial, but if its not there then we have to make sure someone is for those students #teachergrind425

@DrTchr #WMM11 didn't know admin. don't have some MS training. Shouldn't they be more than budgeters/policy makers? #teachergrind425

@PorterElise agree, I went to skool with gang issues & I dont want clothing to be an issue of disrespect for my students. #teachergrind425

@DrTchr #WMM10 Loved the focus group/advocacy policy on the DVD. wish more MS had actual advocate pairings for kids. #teachergrind425

@DrTchr #WMM9 kids who give me trouble, usually do well once I give them a leadership role within the classroom! #teachergrind425

[Brittany Porter @porterbritt3]

@AubreyBlalock I completely agree! Students hit a wall a couple weeks in just like we do! #teachergrind425

@DrTchr #WMM8 Will school's with large # be able to fit a k-8 model? Will students fall through cracks? #teachergrind425

@DrTchr #WMM7 does team teaching give teachers their own sense of individuality or is it a little restrictive to them? #teachergrind425

[Brittany Porter @porterbritt3]

@DrTchr #WMM6 Collaborative curriculum dev is great way for kids to feel ownership of their edu #teachergrind425

@cam42292 @mbaker074 @Tavennrm @DrTchr I never had character ed offered in my school. It was up to teachers #teachergrind425

@miamayer Hi Maria, I am in EDTE621! Looking forward to the chat!

@DrTchr #WMM5 ignoring a students attendance shows you don't notice or care about them. We have to show we miss them! #teachergrind425

[Brittany Porter @porterbritt3]

@DrTchr What do we think about ISS and OSS? Is it beneficial? #teachergrind425

[Brittany Porter @porterbritt3]

@DrTchr #WMM4 I know we need to stress academics, but I still think MS should take care of their mental health first #teachergrind425

[Brittany Porter @porterbritt3]

@DrTchr #WMM3 I never realized that there was so much debate about what is meant to be a "good" middle school! #teachergrind425

[Brittany Porter @porterbritt3]

@DrTchr #WMM2 Its crazy that MS has always struggled to gain support from educators and community, which still happens now #teachergrind425

Many high schools ranked in 2014 returned to the 2015 #BestHighSchools rankings, but there were also new winners. http://t.co/NZyeFmySBM

@AubreyBlalock @MissTaylorChris @DrTchr I agree! So many things we could do, but can't because of policy/ parents, etc. #teachergrind425

[Brittany Porter @porterbritt3]

#WMM1 How do we include kids that are in honors classes, doing high school curriculum in the middle level definition? #teachergrind425
