She has fought with Administration over their lack of standards and the amount of forms that have to be completed with pencil and paper. Of course, she's always complaining about the administration, the students or the parents. She's a teacher in a society that places little value in the teaching profession. What a shame.

IF Mr. Gatto has it Right (and, I believe he has it Righter than any essay I can recall reading in the past 20 years or so..) The root-cause is of such a magnitude that - the Usual Suspects\ufffd simply pale into insignificance. I find Mr. G's essay to be so er seminal - that there isn't even any point to following the usual - religio- politico- $ico- "debates" about What Went Wrong in Murican ed -ja - Cay - shun as our Presidential puppett puts it. No point at all. Just link the combatants to: [link\|http://www.cantrip.org/gatto.html\|[link\|http://www.cantrip.org/gatto.html\|http://www.cantrip.org/gatto.html]] and especially: [link\|http://www.primenet.com/~afhe/gatto2.htm\|[link\|http://www.primenet.com/~afhe/gatto2.htm\|http://www.primenet...e/gatto2.htm]] I mean: Who amongst us could.. paraphrase These?
