Most of the teachers are fantastic. The biggest issues is that there are kids with behaivior issues that are not dealt with allowing them to be continuously disruptive. Teachers end up focusing more on the few students that can't seem to act in a manner conducive to learning rather than education the kids that are ready and willing to learn. Instead of making kids responsible for their behaiviors they reward the behaviorally challenged for doing what the rest of the class has been doing all along. Teachers have their hands tied because they cannot effectively deal with kids who are unable to act appropriately hindering the education of those who there to learn
