Re: Demonstration of What's Wrong With Public Education

The bulk of my friends who have done or are doing Teach for America went in all bright eyed and bushy tailed and came out depressed and disgusted. A few of them are still doing it, but most have left, including one of my friends who loves teaching but is just fed up with the bull**** regulations in some of these school systems. He's quitting at the end of the year and starting a job teaching in a private school where he can actually do something about the kids.

It's sad really.
