Many of the teachers in their database are no longer at the High School.

What do you hope to show with this link, particularly if you point out that it is quite out of date?

I'm just curious.

It's something I found on the web that pertains to Michigan City. What an interesting twist, students grading the teachers. Some of our teachers should be really happy as they got a high ranking from their students.

Ah, gotcha. It's quite an old website, and more used by college kids.

You can also rate your prof, and tell if your teacher is "hot or not".

I'm just hoping that you, nor anyone else is putting any stock in these reviews of teachers. As you pointed out, they're quite outdated, and... one excellent or one bad review can dictate a "rating".

I'm saddened when people judge teachers by such things... most people have no clue what goes on in a day-to-day school setting in most communities, let alone in Michigan City. In fact, I feel like people in MC are MORE misinformed or have misconceptions than in other areas.

Get out there... volunteer, mentor, chaperone for your child or family member, go to a school event (not just a basketball game), and spend some time in our schools. (Not directed at you personally, Tax, just a thought to our community at large.)

I came across that site when doing a lookup of coach Boyd's coaching history, I wanted to do a look back to see how many games he had coached against Merrillville in all of his years over at West Side, when I googled in John Boyd Gary West Side his past teacher rating appeared.

By the way, prior to coming to Michigan City, John Boyd's West Side Cougar teams had never faced any of Jim East's Merrillville Pirate teams in the past, so now that coach East has retired, East wins the all time series between the two coaches five to love, so it's time to wipe the slate clean.
