Admin wants to level our high schoolers into ELD 1, 2, and 3, which would mean mixing up freshmen and seniors...our staff is against it, but they are reacting to ELPA scores which, according to those who don't understand the strands, look abyssmal. I need some moral support here..,.,

abysmal - sorry, posted too soon!

What do you think of the leveling? What would your instructional services look like for each level?

My students are mixed by level AND grade in my classes! I feel that having more homogenous levels would be more beneficial than by grade. Why do you think your staff is against mixing grades?

And for moral support- there are benefits to both! Students like finding things in common with each other! And you will learn a lot about grouping lol

Hello, I am a junior business administrator working in advisory operations. I have been with the company for 6 months, and was employed along with 2 other colleagues. I have picked the job up really fast and am even doing some “extra curricula’s” I really love my job. However I have recently found out I am being paid the same as an apprentice on my team, I usually do at 3 x the work he does whilst also doing my Cert CII. It has really disheartened me and I feel I should be earning more money
