to keep from failing the achievement goals the system moved all the special needs kids to one school. the other four schools achieved their goals. then they cut back on music and band so she was placed teaching math to 4th graders. she said she felt bad for her students because she was awful at math and she had zero experience in teaching it.

so i`m not surprised at all
