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

I’m currently taking an intro education course at Brightpoint community college (in midlothian) EDU 200.

You get to do a 20 hour observation at a public school in the county with your choice of grade level and subject.

Highly recommend taking it for anyone wanting to be a teacher!!

I’ll be honest, I don’t really want to after my observation hours and learning all the government bs teachers have to deal 😅

:( I’m not too far into my degree and I might consider switching to try to be a librarian. Every person I talk to is leaving teaching because of the problems everyone listed and it’s discouraging.
