"As the Washington Teachers' Union (WTU)  General Vice President, I hear countless stories of DC Public Schools teachers being bullied by their own local school principals. Like spousal abuse, this is our dirty little secret.

The extent to which our teachers suffer at the hands of cruel administrators is a hidden fact of school life...  Some of the workplace bullying complaints that have been alleged right here on our doorsteps have occurred at [b]Jefferson MS, Lafayette ES, Orr ES (2014), Truesdell EC, Watkins ES (2014), and West EC[/b]. Out of all of the complaints I have received on workplace bullying; only one teacher was willing to come forward. "

I get that teachers are reluctant to call out bully principals, but how are we as parents supposed to believe anonymous complaints?

I would gladly support serious teacher complaint protection laws to prevent retaliation.  I'm not sure how else to break the logjam.[/quote]
