I tend to complain after 40, as I've only got 40 desks in the class, and it's hard to manage more than 40 kids if no one's absent to free up a desk or two. We occasionally have academic classes with 50 in them, but that's a bit rare. PE classes, however, are often as high as 85. Our state legislature thinks that this is economical and is proud that we do things this way.Lisa Shaferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141316010311729143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4240016087425210708.post-46028959196875191052014-03-29T05:44:16.877-05:002014-03-29T05:44:16.877-05:00Most of my son's classes have under 25 student...Most of my son's classes have under 25 students.

Utah tends to be way above the national average, but I'm just curious to see how close you are to my "normal."Lisa Shaferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141316010311729143noreply@blogger.com
