[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same exact problem in LCPS. I've concluded that it is designed this way on purpose. The powers that be want to create chaos in our public schools because they hate competition. Just today, police arrested a teacher for being intoxicated at an LCPS elementary school. They are completely stressed out.[/quote] There is certainly an uptick in inappropriate situations in schools. Teachers have no outlet and no voice. You either explode or implode. [/quote]

I'm a teacher in my 25th year. Being stressed is no excuse for being intoxicated while at work.[/quote]

You have no idea what type of pressure young teachers are under, much of it financial b/c of low salaries, expensive housing and college debt and the fear of not doing well b/c they need the $$ badly. Hate it when the baby boomers chime in with their holier than thou comments.[/quote]

I have a very good idea. I understand the pressures. We all face them. We are a two teacher household in an expensive area with a child headed to college.

Stating that being stressed isn’t an excuse for a second grade teacher to be intoxicated at 2pm while at work is hardly a holier than thou comment.
