We were told this year that we are no longer allowed to do printed notes, but have to have the kids create them in a lined paper notebook. Is this the more Openscied way? Honestly, it's not my favorite curriculum and it's extremely dry.

I have been teaching almost a decade. I routinely surpass expectations and grow students. I run writing workshops and am well liked. I do have high expectations for students, and occasionally get some parents upset because I hold kids accountable. However, the kids held accountable are ones rolling on the floor during class and running around the room trying to tackle each other etc. I will say that I do things the way that works for me, and I don’t go all in on their buzzword programs. But my students do well. However, I find myself often at odds with admin who get upset about a missing objective here or there and not seeing specific strategies used (Kagan 🧐 or AVID). Any other jobs results would speak volumes. It seems they are constantly moving the goal posts. Is this common in education everywhere? what do these admin even want? AI robots?
