Last year, I had 18 students in a grades two and three combination class. At any time I could easily address every students' individual needs and provide the appropriate enrichment or remediation. It is now projected that I will have 32 students in my third-grade class in September. I hope all these children stay on board, as I would hate to leave any child behind. The solution to the state fiscal crisis shouldn't rest on the backs of students and educators.
