SocraticGadfly: Classes being cancelled at junior high

Classes being cancelled at junior high

Supposedly, the latest cancellation is a Spanish class, with affected students moved to a non-foreign language class.

Now, I don’t know if this happens regularly, either at Lancaster schools in the past, or other schools around the area. So, I don’t know what significance to attach to it, if any.

Supposedly, the teachers who are on the receiving end of the students being moved are being told their teaching area is not a “dumping ground.” I think the only reason an administrator says that is because that’s an impression that’s clearly being generated.

The question you should be asking is why are they having to cancel these classes?? Is it because they are losing teachers faster than they can replace them? And if so, why are they losing them? This sounds serious. What's really going on over at that school??
