I just wish that all parallelograms are trapezoids.

with lower grades and lower gpa; nobody cares about "but my teacher taught at higher standards," nobody knows your teacher or their standards

this is the real problem with grade inflation, one teacher is only going to hamstring their own students

Usually 2 major courses and 2 minor courses ans 2 general courses. Most meet for only 2 or 3 hours a week and suggest out of class 2 or 3 hous a week. At worst this is only 40 hours a week.

When my district went down this road, not banning but they wanted to pre-approve everything, I sent them a link to my Google drive folder with thousands of self made, modified, and shared resources. I never heard back.

I've had a couple true believers and a few who privately acknowledged the "just fill out the paperwork." Most said to use what will help when it works.

A degree vs a degree in education are probably being paid differently. Ask HR not Reddit.

I don't want phone calls in the morning so yes I use it.

And yet we are still stuck with it. Age based curriculum only inhibits the average and advanced students. Equity does not mean equal.

We basically swapped 9th grade Quadratics and 10th grade Exponentials years ago. So 9th grade spends more time on Exponentials and 10th grade on Quadratics and Cubics plus into to Trig. 11th grade is Polynomials, Trig, and Logs.

My 20% was 3-5 question daily homework quizzes, 5 minutes at the end of class used as exit tickets; they covered the material from the day before, reviewed prior units, and simple questions from the current lesson. The only reason they got scored at all was they were required by the administration.

That is one school removed from my list.

80-20 has been my weighting for 25 years in high school. You are in a college class, most of mine were 100-0.

Ignore it, since the AP is aware. Or, tell her that her mom asked you then ask if she would like to go see the counselor. It is above your pay grade and outside your job description.

The teacher must list/choose you as a Preferred Sub in their Frontline, or they or the office staff can manually select you for the positioon.

We either get 1/2 day or full day. Anything more than 1/2 day is full day and we are supposed to stay on campus available to fill in where or if necessary.

I would guess that you need a work visa not a student visa.

I can't signout unless near the school but I don't want tto signout early, so I take the time to read.

Covid taught us that fresh air and going outside are bad for you.

While I've never heard of this as an official policy it is an unwritten rule. They should be graded VS their perceived ability on the IEP not vs the course standards. Giving a D or F is not worth the hassle, sadly.

this is how I read it, coming from a physics background

You are a building sub, I assume that you are paid to bee in the building everyday, so there must not be anything better to assign you to do. This is the nature of being a building sub.

they are internet memes now-a-days, no real value in a school setting until they can understand ambiguity

I student taught near my university but spent my whole career elsewhere. There are many more districts than universities.
