Ferson Creek School

Posted May 27, 2009

Pick your poison - an inexperienced young teacher or a jaded, tenured one that takes off a ridiculous amount of sick days, leaving her students with a string of subs. My kids come home and report they had a sub at least once a week. What should be a fabulous school, considering the wealth and eagerness of parents to be involved, is instead mediocre. Classes are over-crowded. 23 kindergartners?! Appalling.

The teacher to student ratio is not good. Also parental help for crucial learning is not utilized. A very disappointing experience.

This is a great place to be. Even though there have been five principals in five years, the teachers have really pulled this place together and their effort, care, and concern for ferson creek students and families is apparent.

At ferson creek, parents want to be everywhere. What they don't realize is that the teachers are the certified, and trained professionals. Parents need to back down and let teachers do their jobs. Although it is nice for them to offer additional assistnace in the classroom....That is clearly a poor decision as parents are clueless of best practices in classroom education. I would not any parent to help teach my child reading, writing, or math. I want the trained teacher to do that. Bottom line...Parents need to back down and let the teachers do what they do best...Teach. I have observed parents walk around that place like they own it. Sorry, but they obviously need a job of thier own. I only wander, is that how you walk around your doctor's offices- unannounced and expecting to be seen without an appointment? Let's gain some respect for these professional teachers- many ma degrees!
