In time, hard cold reality wins over rhetoric. If it is broken, it is broken…whether it be forced federal health care or forced educational policy curriculum; or forced administrative walk-throughs when districts are hemorrhaging the very teachers who hold the systems together by the most fragile of threads.
Incompetence at multiple levels, teachers streaming out of the field at record rates, updated google dismissal charts and grade level meetings. The weirdest gimmick is unexplained administrative leaves where really good teachers suddenly disappear, remain paid and a slew of substitute teachers enter and exit the building with abandon. The trick is waiting for it all to implode…
We are working in the middle of a Salvador Dali painting…everything and everyone is slowing melting down…dripping over the edges like exhausted clocks…
