Every description about the climate in a public school was Right On. But I can't afford the pay cut to teach at the collegiate level. It is a little better among my AP students-- but you still get the crazy parent and the disrespectful admins. Rock on, Mamacita! Man, you SAID it sister.

Amen. I taught public high school for two years. Working 60 - 80 hour weeks, being told I wasn't working hard enough, at 32k a year. Now I took a 50% pay cut to work in college. I would do this job for free. Please don't tell my bosses. Amen. Amen.
