The renewed war on the veteran teacher

14. Parental support helps a lot -

but is not always enough. I had tons of support from my parents, fantastic students a good principal, but that couldn't make up for the predator administrators out to attack teachers and the layers of new policies making it absolutely impossible to do the job. I wonder how a suburban school district can be immune when public education across the whole country seems to be under siege.

HISD superintendent Greer told the principals that he was unhappy with the district's 11% teacher turn over rate. He wanted it to be more like the 31% rate of charter schools. That about summed it up for me - putting school in crisis mode for your business buddies.
