Amelia, I know of no occupation where employees DON'T have total control. Most just fail to exercise that control. And, If teachers stood with the backbones they have, and protested the abominations handed down from on high, and not cry for more money {which ALWAYS seems to be S.O.P.}, IMHO, they would be surprised and delighted at the parental and community support they would recieve. People DO know. Teachers are the ONLY group who could accomplish this "impossible" goal. Peace and love, George
George, parents are part of the problem. Not all parents, but a few who use the court system to attain their goals.
Who do you think got prayer taken out of schools? Who is trying to get the words "under God" removed from the Pledge of Allegiance?
I'll give you a clue: It's not the teachers.
