Re: Noise levels

[Jeanna Dennis <SIMON827@AOL.COM>]

I hae a different noise problem.  I can keep the sudents to a dull roar, but
our workroom is attached to the library and the teachers get in there
laughing and talking so loudly that it drowns us out! I have a sign on the
door that asks them to keep the door closed when classes are going on, but
they come in and out of the library and leave it open.  I have walked over
during class and closed the door on them, but they don't seem to get the
"hint". Our teachers are notorious for talking during faculty meetings,
professional development, etc. and the princpal doesn't say anything then, so
talking to him would do little good.
Does anybody else have a problem like this?  HOw did you handle it?
