Highly qualified educators...Must make AYP...More certifications...More years experience...Higher test scores...ENOUGH!
Granted, educators must be highly qualified to teach our children. They are our future leaders! We should possess a "passion" for our career. We should exude great leadership skills. We, as educators, wear so many different hats everyday. But when exactly is too much?
Due to the fact that I am considered a "highly qualified educator", according to the Bush Administrations NCLB, I am being relocated to a new school for next year. I am furious about this. My current school has been my home for the past 6 years. I prefer NOT to be higly qualified if this is what was intended. I am currently working on my masters degree and had rather quit now than to continue to be "punished" for doing my job well.
Obviously, I am very upset about this matter. If you have any "words of encouragement" or just straight facts, I am more than willing to listen!
