[quote=Anonymous]I came back this year after taking a few years off to care for an elderly parent. I came back because I love teaching and the kids. If I'm being honest, I do very little teaching. I do a lot of paperwork, sit in meetings about meetings, and complete pointless assessments. Assessments are good to a point but we have so much data my team doesn't even know where to begin with it or how to use it. Each day seems like a lot more busy work and zero time to plan or teach. Teachers are unhappy and I'm seeing a disregard for professionalism teacher to teacher-I'm sure it's exhaustion and low morale. I feel micromanaged by the county and in turn the admin. Kids are not getting what they need-teachers feel unseen, disrespected, and disregarded. Nothing is being done for morale.....just more and more to do- less and less actual planning and teaching. The shortage will get worse. I've been in education for 20 years and this is the worst I've seen it.[/quote]
