Class Size Matters: LAUSD Board Member Steve Zimmer Explains Why

July 16, 2013 Written by admin

Great testimony from a former teacher, now serving on Los Angeles’ school board:

“Small class size isn’t about protecting teachers’ jobs or making their work easier — it’s about providing every student with quality attention in the classroom. Steve Zimmer, Board Member of the Los Angeles Unified School District and a former teacher, asks why we tolerate or dismiss crowded public school classrooms when charters and private schools use small class sizes as a selling point? Warning: Passionate paper throwing ahead.”
