I agree with Mr. Malcolm Thomas. I think all teachers should be judged ONLY on THOSE STUDENTS he or she teaches. It isn’t fair to base their pay on those FCAT scores. There are teachers who try very hard to make sure that all their students are prepared for the FCAT. Personally I think the schools should go back to teaching like they use to. Some students are A students, but when it comes to taking the FCAT test, they freeze up and don’t do so well, because of the stress that is put on each of them. Appreciate you Mr. Thomas! and all the teachers at Molino Park!!

I do believe teachers should be held accountable but only for the ones they teach i know for a fact when i was in school you have some teachers that would go above and beyond to help a student that is struggling on the other hand you had some who could of cared less . Now here it is 20 something years later i see the same thing . I also know at one time here locally we have had teachers teaching that couldn’t even earn their degree to teach but yet they are teaching. And as far as people complaining about they pay i agree some teachers deserve so much more but i don’t think they went into teaching believing they would be millionaires. So job well done for some of you and for the ones that dont care this parent wishes you would find another job

They are the ones who need their pay cut. Yes it’s their district their schools cut their pay the maybe they will stop overcrowding classes by adding a helper. Yes cut it skip the teachers they try but can only do so much when they are being told not to. Yes make these people tell parents that their child’s services are being cut due to budget cuts. What if teachers strike can they due that? Someone said teachers only make like 32,000 a year no way they need to show the world what they deal with because of no funding mainstreaming ese children Most Ese parents have no problem standing to help. If we do not stand to help these teachers the only people we can fault is ourselves. The only reason why these superintendents do this is so the teachers don’t take a stand.
