*** Well it started with a bang. I wasn't informed that I would have a classroom until approximately 8:30am last Monday. Luckily, my colleagues were great in helping me get stuff into the room.
**** Followed the DCPS rules about classroom management the entire week but Principal visited and decided he had made a change to instruction. Problem for me was his mental change was never articulated VERBALLY.
**** I have several kids that I am already calling home, the same children who were problems last year. Parents have issues or lack control yet I must keep calling. No the behavioral specialist and other school support will not intervene until I have called at least 30 freaking times.
***** The principal is HIGHLY unethical doing stuff that is a violation of several federal laws.
***** Principal does not speak to subordinates. I thought this failed in corporate America!!!!
*** I know my content but the administration undermines teachers so systematically when it comes to enforcing the rules with kids it is sooo unbelievable. I have a few good parents but gotta keep calling.
I made the decision to go "county" last week. Strangely, I could deal with the kids issues if I knew support and backup would come from administrators. I love the vets but boy do they get trampled on. I like teaching and being around SOME of the kids but the administration has got to go!!!
*** Will post later but sleepy and haven't eaten all day !!!
