Reply to comment by WalrusInMySheets in Unsatisfied Richmond-area teachers leaving in droves by CrassostreaVirginica

I am still teaching yeah. I was ready to call it quits on education as a whole but I got a job at my dream school where I am treated as a professional with expertise in my own field, admin is supportive and most importantly kids actually want to be here. Sadly this place is literally one in a million.

Yeah she was really excited about her school, but the admin staff that hired her all left like a month later and the new regime is horrific

Ooof that's really rough. It's sad how bad admin can completely ruin a school.

My recommendation to her is to prioritize herself and do the bare minimum required by contract. Do not give bad admin an inch more. She will have no trouble starting over somewhere else next year.
