We had our first senior class graduate this year, and to cover their asses, admin asked the senior teachers (esp. those new to the school, but not the profession) to "pull the students across the line" in the last month of school.

My school pushes us to give failing students make-up work at the end of each quarter/year so that they can pass. But the students completing make-up work doesn't necessarily prove mastery of a particular unit. How can I communicate with admin that an alternative method is needed when they seemingly only care about the percentage of students passing.

My school over works there teachers through duties. Teachers have (2-3) duties a week. Duties include a week long lunch duty where teachers have to monitor the lunch room for a week, parking lot duty (stand outside) hall way duty, visual prep duty, dismissal duty. The worst part is they are not understanding when teachers miss their assign duty.

When a school enacts a policy you don't fully support (ex: unfair grading policy, behavior tracking in HERO) - how do you hold the line with students to promote school buy in and consistency while also working against potentially unfair/oppressive systems?

Our principal as well as many teachers within our district are very resistant to changing anything because it will require more work. How can we help create a school culture that embraces change and progress instead of one that celebrates the status quo and mediocrity?

I feel that my school does school outreach, mailing, phone calls and etc. made by operations team. The issue is that we don't have parents involved in the school community. But its inequitable that teachers feel that parents do not care. There are many reasons why families may not be able to make it. I feel that teachers feel that going the extra mile by making a simple phone call is an issue. But for me its inequitable to believe that a parent does not care and therefore he/she can just rely on the report card that will say that he is doing poorly or failed.

My school pushes students ahead through the grade levels, and then tries to "pick up the pieces" during senior year via Cyber High. Students end up learning nothing in Cyber High, and they regularly struggle in higher grades because they come in unprepared.

I don't have a specific situation but I feel like my department members all have very different styles and thus homework is very different between us

I feel like the feedback I give is treated as a criticism and taken personally, making me feel like I should just click " agree" on everything. How can I address this to my administration without it becoming personal?

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like student issues are addressed very differently depending on who their parents are. For example, if a parent is know to be very vocal, the student receives a lesser consequence because administration doesn't want to deal with that parent. I do not know how to address this.

How do I talk to administration about reprioritizing standardized test prep and results when the high scores lead to better ratings and press for the school as well as the reason that some families enter the lottery for admission?

I feel that my school does not push students to receive Advanced Regents HS diplomas by not offering one extra language credit to make them eligible. How can I address this with my principal?

As of right now, our high schoolers only have one year of PE due to lack of space on campus. What are other opportunities that we can provide our students to ensure that physical health is a priority?

When students are working in groups of four, one student often carries a lot of the cognitive load of interpreting/understanding the problem, so that other students aren't given the space to wrestle with this (and as a result, don't understand what problems are asking on assessments).

I feel that sometimes students are moved in and out of my classes without my knowledge

I don’t agree with the behavior management style at our school. I feel that in an effort to make students feel loved, admin downplays the effect of student actions, which makes me the bad guy when I hold high expectations.

Our discipline policy is not consistent nor communicated well.  ex 1) We have two students still in school who distributed/smoked weed during the day, but expelled two students who put shaving cream on the stairs...
ex 2) we have a uniform that stifles cultural differences ( no hoop earrings, facial hair)

# data[].attributes.body
Our school has a policy that homework can't be part of a student's grade. My colleague "grades" homework by giving privileges to students that complete it (notes on tests, for example). This creates inequity in her classroom, as the students that work full time (or have other responsibilities) don't have the same opportunity as other students.

My school really pushes for 90% passing rate due to the lack of resources for credit recovery options. I sometimes get emails asking to change some grades, how do I respond to these?

I feel that math teachers are creating problems when they lament how students come to them with low/no math skills. How do I strategically interact and support planning worthwhile, engaging activities across math classes (instead of oppressive “interventions”)?

# data[].attributes.body
When a student is expressing negative things about how another teacher is treating them unfairly (ex: inconsistencies in grading, over-punishing particular students) how do you remain professional but also ensure the student feels heard and validated?

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like my admin is making us do too much SAT/PSAT prep to try and cram before the students actually take the exams. How can I address this with my admin team to come up with a better strategy.

I feel that my administrators really struggle to listen to what teachers and students voice to them. How can I address this and give feedback to my administrators in a thoughtful manner?
