Does having two teachers eliminate or at least mitigate the need for smaller classes? What about the proportion of special ed and gened students -- does that 40/60 ratio seem appropriate and reasonable to you? While DOE is supposedly reducing class size for both gened and CTT classes, they also mandated that CTT classes be at their maximum size. What’s the class size and does it make sense to you?
