Class Discussion Reflection..

Overall, i think our class discussion went pretty well.  A lot of the issues that are holding reform back were indeed mentioned and thought of throughout  the discussion.  I thought it was interesting how Matt said that his former charter school was more uptight with him and his grades and appose to hear where most of the times teachers aren't like that here.  He also mentioned how he thinks this school is more easier in how the subjects are taught and that may lead to average scores on tests etc.  Another topic that i thought was interesting was the double school, split the school in day and night sessions, similar to college.  Many people seemed like they didn't like the idea, i personally wouldn't mind, but i came to a quick conclusion that it would just make things more chaotic and unorganized.  The typical student in our school is a rather average lazy student.  They have the potential, ( anyone does) to receive excellent grades, but they take it for granted and want to simply ease through high-school.  Granted, no one is perfect and i admit there have been classes in my past and in my present that i could do much better in and i know i can, but i simply dont achieve it.  Then when i realize it, its potentially to late.
