HOW ABOUT SOME ACADEMIC FOCUS?

Considering that our academic day in the elementary school is about 5 and a half hours when you take out recesses, lunch and specials such as library, music, and P.E., and that our teachers have 7 subjects to teach to 20 students or more, should they really be leaving their classroom continually for buddy programs down to lower grades or have the high school and middle schools coming over?

Maybe if teachers were allowed to stick to the curriculum they are supposed to be teaching more often we wouldn't be ranked next to dead last (thank goodness for Great Falls) in AA district middle schools here in Helena by the State Office of Public Instruction. Just a thought----
