In this episode they talk about the C students and how they represent the happy medium. When I was teaching I remember that being one of my concerns where the students at each end of the spectrum are paid attention too but what would happen if we had the time and resources to spend time elevating those who sit in the middle either through lack of confidence or motivation realising of course you will still have a core group of less academically minded students whose talents may lie in other areas.
Do you know, it's incredibly durable too? My mom has a file box full of mimeographed papers, and when you lift the lid, the scent is wonderful! 🥰 I wonder what they put in that ink!
I wish my high school principal had been as awesome as principal Kaufman. My principal was a sadistic military vet. I think he had ptsd or something, but he really was a jerk.
We had a kindergarten class in our high school, back in the 80s. The teachers were high school students, supervised by a kindergarten teacher, and the little kids did so well there was a long waiting list to get into it. Then it was cancelled, for a bunch of reasons that probably included fear of political problems. That's why American schools never get any better.
Room 222 has always been refreshing: Every story is inspirational, show explores life through the lense of academia.
I remember they had a nursery in my high-school back in the late 70's.
Room 222 was a combination of drama and comedy.

I miss that smell!
Ah, yes. I remember it well. 🙂
@@zxyatiywariii8 I know what you mean
Great show 😊
Remember, if we don't learn anything from history, we will more than likely be repeating what we didn't learn the first time. 😊❤
really enjoying discovering this great show! progressive without being "preachy". Wonder what its reception was like at the time?
It was very well received when I watched it first run as a teen in 1969.
How does this show compare to Abbott Elementary?
Hand cranked ditto machine!
Wow, did that one lady hand crank the paperwork for an entire school?
@@yakk13 A lot of the time they had student helpers do it, along with other tasks. The students liked helping out.
I remember how cold the paper was freshly out of the machine. I also remember everyone smelling the paper

Maybe you're just a sorry piece of shit, ever think of it like that?

My high school was not like mr. Kaufman. He had a don't care attitude. Whenever, he sees a problem he looks the other way.
All i see when i look at that principal is the terrible toupee.
If you followed his screen career, you'd know that was his real hair. Gosh you're stupid.
That's not all he had fake.
I don't think it was a toupee.
Just late 60s hair.
I think it's just a bad comb over.
Those kids in the nursery are in their 50s now!
Goo goo ga ga.
Those short skirts !!!! I GET A PUDGY !!!
