But look at the agenda of the yearly AFT meetings, and all you see are political subjects, nothing about teaching. Most of the teachers and professors I know are frustrated with the restrictions they have, the bureaucracy of the system, the massive overhead of administrators and aides that costs so much, the politics that go on. Some of our better teachers retire as early as they can, others just burn out and find other kinds of work.<br />So real educators are one thing, professional organizations can be and sometimes are something else.Delnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7362663422037727028.post-85313358321598954642010-09-13T21:46:49.525-05:002010-09-13T21:46:49.525-05:00Unfortunately you have a sad opinion about educato...Unfortunately you have a sad opinion about educators and there professional organizations. I would like to sit down with you so that you could discover that these organizations spend 95% of there efforts to improve instruction to the many different children that we are sent. The other % ends up defending personal attacks and greedy school boards.<br /><br />I am personally fed up with those that complain but fail to work to improve (not destroy) our Great County, the U.S.A.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7362663422037727028.post-81183946323611156382010-09-09T13:45:33.979-05:002010-09-09T13:45:33.979-05:00How could anybody disagree with a single word?!
