Not a large public school admin but a large early childhood program administrator and served as teacher of children and teacher/mentor of adults, all total, 30 years. I did volunteer assist in elementary classrooms during that time as well. He clearly has no knowledge of how schools are run, the mountain of rules/regulations/statutes under which schools operate or why.Morley wrote: ↑Sun Dec 05, 2021 5:13 pmYou are allowed to.. If this were true, you'd already be doing it. But you're not.
I was a school administrator. We tried to get volunteers. After the first couple of weeks they just didn't show up.
As far as helping with bullies, no parent wants an unknown, untrained volunteer counseling or disciplining their child.
I'm going to be busy for the next few hours or so, but later in the day, I will try to post my ideas about transforming the public school system in a separate thread and my reasoning for my proposals. If you see it, I would like you to help expand on my ideas and also challenge them. Poke holes in them where you see an opportunity to do so. I've posted them numerous times on this board. I think I can refine them a bit better this go round and spoiler alert: I'm going to steal one of AM's ideas from this thread and incorporate it into my proposal. I may toggle certain posters on/off ignore, but I'm not one to ignore what I think is a good idea.
