Description
I expect that many teachers will get a good deal of satisfaction from seeing their concerns in print, and I hope that reading this book will be a cathartic experience for them, as writing it has been for me. Who will tell the truth about what is really going on in our schools? For sure it won’t be a working teacher. Their lives and pensions are vested in the profession, and if they were to file any form of public complaint against the administrators, they would risk becoming a pariah within their school and throughout the educational community. It would be a career-ending move. Only someone like me who is retired, and still passionate about educational concerns, can face down fraudulent administrators, corrupt board members, and greedy corporate types who are perverting educating and diverting money allocated for public schools into their for-profit ruse, using ‘choice’ as their mantra. No doubt, it takes a modicum of courage to expose administrative inadequacies, and corrupt practices, as one must overcome many years of risk avoidance and intimidation. So here are the facts, backed by personal experience, along with solutions to change the process to make the system work for the students and their teachers, who in the final analysis are only people who truly count. Everybody else is superfluous.
