[quote=Anonymous]Camaraderie in a workplace is wonderful and is especially important in a job like teaching where you have many stakeholders (kids, administration, parents) and are required to be "on" for so much of your day. Supportive colleagues help make that situation tolerable. Now, if OP is talking about a specific instance of a teacher doing something unethical or harmful to students and the tendency of other teachers to circle the wagons and protect a bad teacher, that's something else. If you are at a school where this happens, I would use DC's lottery system to leave because it's toxic and will only get worse. It's a major sign of dysfunction at that particular school. But at good schools, the affinity between teachers actually makes them better at their jobs.[/quote]
