98% of school administrators should be fired and their positions eliminated.

Since they have no job skills and no one would hire them we would have to pay welfare but that's cheap compared to what we are paying the primidanas now.

I didn't read your post before I posted mine. Oh well, we agree about getting rid of administrators.

My friend is a high school teacher and said she was admonished by her new administrator for: giving F's to students who did not turn in work; giving detentions to unruly students who disrupt the class; not being kind enough and raising the self-esteem of the low achievers (aka: lazy bums who don't come to class or do the work). She fears she will lose her job if she doesn't conform to the kinder, gentler educational approach of this administrator. She is thinking of leaving teaching within the next five years because the stress is becoming too difficult to deal with.
It's sad to see this, she is highly intelligent and extremely hard-working. She also believes in discipline and personal responsibility.
