First Day of Service for S.Y. 2010-2011
I have accepted 70 newly enrolled pupils. I talked to the parents and said that their child will still be distributed to the the two sections aside from my section. Some just smiled and some asked me a favor of not giving their children to other teachers which I don't know the reason why. I told them that it depends upon the general average and the reading ability of their child. But others really insisted. I checked the other sections about the pupils enrolled in their class. However, it is so disappointing when I have the most number of pupils compared to them. One has only 8 pupils enrolled and the other is 30. What I did is, explaining and convincing 5 pupils who are slow readers to transfer to other section so I can have 35 pupils only.I chose the slow readers because I handled the section 1 homogeneous pupils. The pupils just nodded. But when their parents knew, they confront me and insisted to enroll their child in my section. I accepted two pupils temporarily but have told the parents that I will test their child's mental capacity tomorrow.
This is my first time to experience this kind of problem. I am just hoping I can resolve this tomorrow before tapping the shoulders of the principal and guidance counselor.
