all of the students are not at reals everyday at the same time. Like I previously stated, it's an AB schedule... Friday's however, when everyone is in reals, the teachers have meetings, and planning time.

Youre either full of it or its been changed. Im guessing youre full of it.

When I was there every peer group went to reals at the same time Monday and Friday in the morning.

On Wednesday we would have some sort of specific reals depending on whatever particular issue your counsolers felt you were dealing with, this was generally a waste of time as the counsolers would generally place you in a group without asking you what was going on, thus you usually ended up in a group that had nothing to do with you. I personally ended up in a divorce support group many many times having come from a home deviod of any divorce.

These groups took place later in the afternoon, so wednesday morning, tuesday and thursday were for class-if you want to call it that remember you cant fail no matter what you do. The rest of the time is for reals or sitting on the field.

Remembering again your child can be pulled out of class at any time for any length of time in order to work on issues of some sort. Not to worry though, your child is virtually garunteed to make honor roll, ,irregardless of whether or not they attend class.

The schedule is different now. All students have class everyday and it is only in the afternoons that they have Reals. The students who are not in reals have Academic Support where every teacher is available to them for tutoring. There is not a no-fail policy. We have Academic Support time and we use it to make sure that students have all the resources they need to understand and pass each class. It is entirely possible to fail. We are all full-time and all have degrees in out respective fields. My students write research papers, do projects, analyze primary source materials and refine their abilities to write professionally. It is pointless to argue about different people's experiences; I am only telling you what HLA is like right now. By the way, I am not Matt. I am a teacher.

RobertBruce:
This is funny because teachers like Marla disagree with you? You do remember her dont you? HLA and Marty have worked very hard to make sure her post does not rememerge. Let me see if I cant dig it up.

I also find it funny how you speak of all the teachers having degrees in their respective field. I personally had to teach spanish because the math teacher they gave it to barely spoke a word. Yet I myself was not a teacher.

Also you seem to be evading the fact that again kids can be pulled out of class at any time for any length of time, and it wont affect their grades. Tell me just off hand how many kids failed your class last semester?
