Why?
August 5, 2010, 12:27pm (report abuse)More shrinks and back-patters do not necessarily lead to greater achievement. In fact, many of the sob-sisters actually convince the students it isn't their fault and to think it is okay not to work hard to achieve.
No Way
August 6, 2010, 6:43pm (report abuse)Not necessary.
For What
August 8, 2010, 11:40pm (report abuse)Just another waste of money.
I work with the future...
October 25, 2010, 5:01pm (report abuse)I disagree...although I have experience in this on a daily basis. I work at a Title I school(more than 40% cannot afford price of school meal). The students that this would affect are our future. If we invest in them now, it will help our future.

HUH?
November 1, 2010, 10:04pm (report abuse)HUH? DJONES, as a school counselor, you are not supporting this bill? My post is supporting the bill?

Peace.
HELLO?
November 2, 2010, 11:09pm (report abuse)So what are your reasons for not supporting this bill?
Not just, it's a waste of time or money, etc. But really what is the issue?
It's supporting students and kids...Why is this controversial?
