[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the above. I quit teaching after four years. It's a hard job, especially at an urban, low income school like The one I was at.[/quote] I'm entering my 5th year in an inner city 95% FARMS school and I am so very tired. My DD goes to a private middle school and I was just so excited to make it through her entire Back to School Night without hearing the word "data." How refreshing it was! I feel like my admin and the higher ups just see my students as data points. It's really creepy and sad how much they hang on every data point. We always need constant streams of data. I hate the beginning of the year so very much. I hate Sunday nights with a passion. I feel like teachers at schools like mine are expected to be the "saviors" of our students. I give my best at all times but I have 2 kids of my own and at the end of the day, they are my first priority. [/quote]
