EducationPacing & Curriculum Management4HighTeacher$ implied
A second-year teacher is overwhelmed by the expectation to cover grade-level material while also remediating students who are four years behind, with only test scores and inflated grades as measures of success.
Existing curriculum and gradebook tools do not support concurrent remediation and grade-level pacing, nor do they address the disconnect between inflated grades and actual mastery.
