2、for the best teachers for her two children, making her case this spring in letters to the principal. Then all she could do was waiting for news of their classroom assignments and its been torturing. The Aurora mom knows her efforts carry no guarantees. One year her son didnt get the teacher Hall had
3、 hoped for, and he struggled for months with one whose relaxed style came across to him as uncaring. “Granted, I know its just kindergarten,“ said Hall, 39. “But . a teacher can make or break you.In the next few weeks, many families will rip open notification letters or go to school to see class lis
4、ts posted on the front door. For parents accustomed to directing nearly every aspect of their childs early learning it can be difficult to have little voice in teacher selection-a decision they view as critical. Some spend hours crafting the perfect letter or meet with the principal to make an argum
5、ent. For their childs early learning, parents regard that teacher is critical.Principals, meanwhile, struggle to create balanced classrooms while juggling (更改) individual requests. They say they want input but find it increasingly necessary to discourage parents from asking for a specific teacher. A
6、dministrators dont want the selection process to be a popularity contest-in part because what makes a teacher popular may have nothing to do with a particular childs educational needs.“Im bright enough to realize parents talk at soccer fields and baseball fields, but you have to realize your experie
7、nce with Teacher A may be very different than someone elses Teacher A,“ said Scott Meek, the new principal at Northbrook Junior High School who is making classroom assignments this summer for 600 students with the help of an office display board. He asks parents to focus their input on the student a
8、nd his or her learning style and trust the school to make the right match.Some students also believe that certain teachers bring out the best in them. “I need one of those strict kinds of teachers,“ said Halls daughter Tori, 12, who is entering 7th grade. “When I get a not-so-strict teacher, I think
9、 they dont really care about me. I really dont want a bad teacher. Ill get lower grades.“When Chaya Fish, 30, of West Rogers Park taught at a private school in New York, she said, it was obvious who the “in, teachers were. She said she automatically joined them after the principals son landed in her
10、 classroom. “It was ridiculous,“ said Fish. “The other teacher was probably better than me. It was how you dressed, how you talked“ that often determined parental favor.Teachers said the most vocal parents often get their way so that all parties involved can avoid a difficult school year. But educat
11、ors warn that parents who get what they wish for may be sorry afterward. “A lot of times when people orchestrate (精心安排) who they think their child is best suited for, they find they made a mistake,“ said Mark Friedman, superintendent for Libertyville Elementary School District 70. “I have many paren
12、ts say later, I dont know why I did this. It isnt working out this year.“ Friedman said he assures parents their comments will be considered but never guarantees a specific teacher. In fact, he tells them that if they do request a teacher and later regret that choice, “you have no one to blame but y
13、ourself.“Some parents said theyve learned their lesson about trying to guess which teacher would be best. Jamie Thompson said she was initially concerned when her daughter was assigned to a strict lst-grade teacher. She was aware other parents had lobbied for a different person, who had a more casua
14、l style. “At the end, it turned out that the other class was asking, Why isnt my child learning that? “said Thompson, 36, of Arlington Heights. “Thats why I dont want to interfere too much.“Yet parents have different reasons for requesting classes, and some have nothing to do with the teacher, said
15、Michelle Van Every, 36, of Deerfield. She and other mothers once requested that their children not be placed in a classroom with a specific boy-not because of him, but to avoid his mother, who had created problems in the past, she said. “We didnt want to cross paths with her,“ said Van Every, who ad
16、ded that the school complied with their request. “We didnt want to have to volunteer with her at a class party.“Each district follows its own procedure for teacher selection. Some begin as early as April or May, officials said. Many ask parents to complete a form about their childs strengths and wea
17、knesses. Typically, teachers have some say in the process by deciding early on which students should be separated or kept together, on the basis of academics, personalities and learning styles. The principal draws up the final class lists, often after meeting with parents or reviewing special reques
18、ts, officials said.Many school districts wait until the last minute to announce class assignments, usually about two weeks before the start of school. Thats because they have come to expect a flood of phone calls within hours from parents who beg or demand to switch teachers.Other schools handle it
19、differently. At Sawyer Elementary School on Chicagos Southwest Side, the fall class assignments are handed out with the last report card the previous spring, said teacher Maureen “Moe“ Forte. Forte said she is aware of colleagues and members of the Local School Council who have asked that their chil
20、dren be moved from one class into another. “Its not fair,“ Forte said. “I was very upset that one of the LSC parents moved her daughter to my classroom. The parent just felt my personality fit better with her child. But its not a personality contest.“Denita Ricci of Lake Villa said she knows parents
21、 who request certain classes but tries to stay out of the process. Her son, Mason Wubs, 12, hopes to be placed in the same class as his best friend, easing the transition to 7th grade at a new school. “I trust the schools judgment,“ she said, though she secretly hopes Mason will share a class with h
22、is friend. “I think they need to learn to deal with people who are different from them, just like an employer./(分数:70.00)(1).Parents have louder voice in teacher selection in their childs early learning because _.(分数:7.00)A.they are used to directing nearly all aspects of their childB.they are used
