Teachers, by and large, are morons. I was stunned when I found out I was the only person in my building to vote to get the Mulgrew gang out. I graded exams last year with a group of teachers who thought themselves politically savvy, yet had no idea who Diane Ravitch was. I am not proud to be among these people. In my building, the best and the brightest, young and old, have been flushed out. Now the stars are functionally illiterate professional brown nosers. So sickening. Glad I pulled my kid out of the system before they made her retarded.Sobroteachnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515738343772337569.post-58032103917798965692014-06-06T08:19:57.231-04:002014-06-06T08:19:57.231-04:00Not a peep til 2020.

The others have their heads up someplace else, sometimes up the principal, but surely cannot be bothered with informing themselves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515738343772337569.post-54660833578765031032014-06-06T05:28:23.773-04:002014-06-06T05:28:23.773-04:00I agree with your post 100%.
