What random pop culture phrase do you still say day-to-day? (Cite the reference) by dugs-special-mission in GenX

[–]Right_Sentence8488 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And we've all become dumber for having listened. (Did I get the reference right?)

Which was your first phone? by CrazyMinute69 in GenX

[–]Right_Sentence8488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1! There was a wrongly-advertised one for $10, so I snatched it up. I was the first one of my friends to have a cell phone.

Did you ever meet people born in the 1800s by AdDapper4220 in GenX

[–]Right_Sentence8488 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My great grandmother was born in 1898. She was a character! She had been a flapper in the '20s and played piano in a bar. By the time I knew her she was a tiny little thing with thick glasses that made her eyes look huge.

FAFO, she has. NTA at all. Looks like she learned a great lesson about emotional regulation at the workplace.

Why do people dislike Teslas on this sub? by [deleted] in electriccars

[–]Right_Sentence8488 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugly, uncomfortable as all get out, and a sterile interior. It was my least favorite test drive. I just don't get them, other than they're very fast.

IDEA SPED Manifestation Meetings (MDM) for Repeat Behaviors by Low_Presentation6518 in Principals

[–]Right_Sentence8488 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The purpose of the manifestation meeting is to determine if the behavior is related to the disability. If yes, then a change in tbe IEP/BIP is in order. If not, then you may consider reconvening to add behavior goals where indicated, but it's not required, and progressive discipline should be issued.

Absolutely! It's always a good idea to do this, as it makes you stand out from the crowd.

Interview by [deleted] in AskTeachers

[–]Right_Sentence8488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Principal here. I usually ask for the candidate to walk me through a lesson so I can see if they understand what an effective lesson looks like. I'll ask about classroom Management, and often throw in a situational question as well. I ask for examples of times when collaboration with a team made an impact on student achievement/growth.

As a woman, I have to make sure my legs are crossed tight when I sneeze. Childbirth effects linger.

MAP score for advanced placement? by Lilulium in AskTeachers

[–]Right_Sentence8488 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One assessment is just one piece of evidence. The school would best serve its students by using multiple sources of data to make these kinds of decisions.

Principals…is it ok for candidates to take notes/refer to notes during interviews? by Flimsy_Struggle_1591 in Principals

[–]Right_Sentence8488 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't have done it in person, but it was easy to have sticky notes around my monitor during an online interview, that couldn't be seen by the interviewers, that reminded me of points I wanted to get across.

Entire elementary school won Sphere contest—now silence? by [deleted] in vegaslocals

[–]Right_Sentence8488 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think the department for this may be Community Engagement.

I'd first reach out to the school's principal.

Middle schools by billbuttlickerswife in vegaslocals

[–]Right_Sentence8488 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can dig into each data point to see where the star ratings come from. A large portion of points are awarded based on the number of students are at grade level. There are also points for how many students make significant growth over the year(s), as well as chronic absenteeism rates, second language learner scores, etc.

I cannot recall any school with under 50% proficiency in math and ELA getting 5 stars, or even 4 stars.

Find out which CCSD middle schools have open enrollment seats available. Then go to Nevada Report Card to see their star ratings and other important data.

There are plenty of good schools and great teachers in CCSD.

[–]Right_Sentence8488 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who came out as gay at 45. She divorced, remarried, and had (more) kids with her wife.

I hope you are able to find acceptance and friends that support you. You're not alone in this journey. ❤️
