[quote=Anonymous]This is normal. Teaching and administration are really challenging. A recent study indicated that 80 percent of DC teachers had considered leaving the profession in the last two years. Folks have been studying teacher turnover nationwide and how to stabilize it. (Money helps, but working conditions matter.) Through it all, the vast majority of folks who got into teaching did so for the right reasons. They want children to be safe and happy and they want the satisfaction of doing a good job. So even if there are some customer service issues along the way, most of the time the problems folks report are not crises. Agreed with the poster who mentioned that you’re more likely to hear about complaints. Not only is this true, but at this time of year it’s especially the case. People are burnt out right now.[/quote]
