[quote=Anonymous][quote]I understand you are a teacher so you are biased. Can a tenured teacher be fired like a private school teacher? No. You have unions that make the parent's life hell if we even complain. It's not about success, it's about stress. Stress that doctors and mental health providers recognize all too well. Langley especially is legendary. My kid's doctor told her that she was working the equivalent of two full-time jobs and to get the hell out. He called the environment abusive and it's known that way throughout the medical community in the area. Again, it is up to the administration and the school board to put the brakes on any parents that are pushing beyond. The parents will then take their 'brilliant' child and pay for private. They don't WANT to pay for private. They want to force the administration to do their bidding. In this sense, yep, it's the parents. You speak like the administration and the school board has no control. They sure as hell do. They don't want to exercise it because the benefit to them is inflated numbers. They make the list. I would not be surprised to find out if there were financial incentives. I intend to find out. [/quote] I'm more or less an observer on this thread. I find this statement confusing. Could you give specific examples of the problem? I'm clueless.[/quote]
