We have 2-3 computers for each teacher who is supposed to give Achieve 3000 and Write to Learn to 2-3 students while other students actually learn from the teacher. At my school, we have not even gotten the school supply money. I am going on my 5th year of an ink cartridge that is currently sputtering and about to give out. We were told to have portfolios for our students, but we have to supply them with, once again, no financial help. The district cut back on library databases that help our students with research. Oh, and we have no media center because there are classes in there. Seriously, the waste of money that Duval encourages is utterly ridiculous in the face of a widespread lack of resources.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
