I'm relatively sure none of the teachers are awful. The parents are too powerful to allow that to happen. My son's teacher last year was new, and the parents set her straight on school policy in public on Open House night.
I imagine the parents in the competitive class feel that it's good for their kids. :) Truth be told, I'd have loved it as a kid.
But I've got my fingers and toes crossed that he doesn't end up in the overly tidy class. Whose third grade students are doing art and writing projects that wouldn't be out of place in high school. :) I just don't trust an overly tidy classroom, especially in elementary school.
I didn't have a strong opinion about one of the other ones one way or the other, and the last one will be brand new so I don't know her.
I'm sure it will be fine, even if he ends up in the tidy class. He's more flexible than I credit him with.
Good luck with your little one! I'll let you know mid August. :))
