[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last night the drunk angry teacher pretty much outed himself but looks like all those comments are gone today. [/quote]

Thankfully my kid had him last year so hopefully won't for 8Th grade. Or maybe he'll make good on his threat to leave for greener pastures. [/quote]

PP here. I saved all the posts. Just needed to have proof of what at least one of the teachers is really like.[/quote]

Didn't need this thread to know what Hardy parents were like but it's certainly a plus! [/quote]

It doesn't really matter what the parents are like does it? [b]I would like to state here that I'm on the teacher's side on this, always on teacher's side in every matter.[/b] But you need to be honest here. You as a teacher work for the school district and are, in fact, paid by property taxes collected in the city. To think that you don't work for the parents may be directly correct, but you've seen what a loud group of parents can do. [b]I wouldn't be so cavalier and arrogant to think it couldn't happen to you and you won't be sent back to a nail salon to earn a living.[/b][b][/quote]

You seem very pro teacher yep. 
I don't think parents realize how easy it is to move around in dcps. I could be hired tomorrow at ten different schools, with the same salary and fewer headaches from parents like thesw

OK, but I'd argue that you're potentially trading in current headaches for others. Going from one school where lots of parents are very engaged and the students are prepared to learn to a school with unengaged parents and students who are grade levels behind, comes with a different set of headaches. Everything from principal expectations for teachers  for tutoring or extra curriculars to teacher parking could be trading one set of headaches for another.  Your work commute. [/quote]

They are asking for fantasy world. They want the resources, financial support and student demographic that comes with UMC students but none of the engagement and demands that come along with that population. [/quote]
