No, teaching is a JOB. A job on the assembly line at Ford is not a gift,
though they're hard to come by, its a job. Same thing with teaching. Just
because children are involved doesn't mean we should all be willing to work
for free.

I'm not negative about you offering work, but I think I have the right to
say its crap work. Charters treat teachers poorly, for the most part, and
pay poorly too. You get what you pay for...

Why? Don't members of your family attend Charter schools? Or, do they have
good teachers and a good school?

And, we might ask ourselves, why in the worst teacher employment market in
the country are you looking for so many teachers? Is it because of low pay
and bad treatment?
We are a charter, I am an administrator,

Yes you would, because I am a highly educated special education teacher with
experience. If I was willing to teach in your school, you'd snap me up.
However, you might not need me because you can refuse to educate disabled
students. One benefit of working for a Charter.
Really teaching for a Charter is horrible. Ask Charter teachers.
Particularly Charter teachers who used to teach Public. Its great for an
administrator. Bonuses and commissions paid like you're selling cars or
washing machines, and the ability to boss around your staff and be a bully.
As far as teaching... its better than no paycheck, but not better than
working in the mall, so you make the call.
