I Love My Kids' Elementary School. But Then I Met Their Terrible Math Teacher.
Briefly

My fifth-grade twins have been at our Title I elementary school since Pre-K and loved it. It's a small school with dedicated staff who go above and beyond to provide our global majority, under-resourced school population with a quality education. Except for my kids' math teacher.
One of my twins was identified as a 'good student leader' and has been complaining about it all semester, feeling stressed and struggling to understand the basic concepts she is expected to master and teach her classmates. Her grades are starting to fall and homework sessions at home involve tears because she says she doesn't have time to complete the lessons in class due to helping her peers.
