You're right Tramp. Having gone to Catholic schools from K-12, I can tell you that the nuns, brothers, and priests get more respect than the lay teachers. They hold a strange power over people. Part of it may be the reputation they have from years past.

Heck, I was terrified of the nuns at St Brendan's, and I was only walking by on my way home from the public school down the street!

put the baby in day care right in the school all day (and provide all the diapers, formula, etc all day), and take them home in a van at the end of the day. One of the girls explained that this way, by the time she graduates the kid will be old enough for all day head start and she won't ever have to worry about child care....

our tax dollars hard at work....at some point, sometime in the last 40 years or so....someone told kids that this was ok...we understand.....you're only pregnant, not sick...its part of life...you're a beautiful person and we love you anyways...

so you won't have 10 years teaching under your belt and you will be teaching this kids children.....and a few years later you will be teaching the grandchildren...
this thread originally started out as PEER Pressure....how appropriate....cuz a pregnant teen when i was young was virtually ostracized from the community and labeled a PIG....a .....etc......this type of Peer Pressure in itself provided the influence necessary to keep kids in line. NOW....we tolerate, we become immune to it....we ignore it.....we pay for it...

I do apologize....it was my fault....way back in the third or fourth post when all I did was ask the jackass where a member of the member's lounge could drain his member....and of course duckie, being the naive one of the member's lounge, didn't know what i meant by member so i invited her to take me to the member's lounge men's room where she would see a member draining his member.

Do ya get my drift ???.......oops bad pun.

I think it's a very small school.... Eeyore could explain better, since she works there. Generally the concern is kindergarteners having to deal with 7th and 8th graders, though... not the other way around...

I teach in a small private school, about 380 students. The Kindergarteners don't have to worry about the 7 and 8th graders too much because we have two buildings.:)

My son's school has a similar set-up, with 500 students. The 3K-K are in one building, the 1st grade is in another, the 2nd & 3rd grades are in another, and 4th-6th are in another. Counting the administration house, there are 5 buildings in all, with a separate playground for the different grade groupings. My daughter's High School also includes Middle School, but the grades don't "mix" (usually) until 9th grade; there is a genius who was taking upper school classes early, but that was an exception.
