Too many in the system to punch a time clock, get summers off and retire. And who needs tenure? If you are a valuable asset, you get to keep your job. If not, then somebody else does. Welcome to the rest of the world.

They should not be allowed to push any political agenda on students while doing so! Children of all ages are more easily influenced than adults, and if they agree with the teacher they are much more likely to urge their parents to take action. Many people who don't work as teachers try to avoid even discussing politics at work, much less taking an open and public stance to influence your customers (i.e. students). Teachers should be scolded and perhaps reprimanded for such public actions at school. Tue, 24 Mar 2009 12:05:04 +0000 http://www.kidk.com/news/local/41714867.html#IDComment17507637
