I think disrespect can occur at any age. It's the treating me like I'm dumb attitude that bothers me the most. Yes, I know how to operate a projector! No, you don't have to have kids read the whole time or watch a travel show about France. I have the skills to teach. That's why I take these assignments. What is more disturbing is that these so-called 'top districts' continue to employ people with only a BASIC knowledge of their subject area. They were obviously hired for other purposes; ie, to coach a sport, or their husband works in the district. And they go on about their SAT scores or high numbers of AP students, yet there are whole swathes in these lower level classes who can't even identify a verb or do basic math without a calculator.
