No there isnt. C-SCOPE has been around going on 10 years, its
still around and always will be in some form or another. Its no
longer an issue of if TRS wins, its already won.

No one cares if your looking through backpacks.

If the outflux is growing why does my classroom keep getting
bigger? Why is our district building more and more schools and
buildings?

Who cares if parents get angry, what are they going to do run
for school board. We have an initiative this year to research
offshoring community relations to call centers. Parents can get
angry all they want, the only think that matters is if they are
going to spend the money to file a law suite. Nothing else
matters, they cant do anything else.

The status quo is moving along for nearly a decade now.
Your basically shooting at a tank with a handgun, the only real
options are to get on board, get out of the way or get run over.

I write about this because I am concerned about teachers, and
the best way to keep their jobs is doing what their supervisors
tell them to do. Its not their classroom, its the districts, you
took the money, you do what they tell you. It baffles me that
only in this profession, do people think they can tell their boss
no and expect to keep their job.
