This is part of an email I got this morning from a retired High School teacher in Springfield, MA.

QUOTE:
I went out last night with 3 women who are still teaching, 2 full time in high school, one finishing her doctorate and teaching part time just everywhere. They were SOOOO unhappy and burned out. Worse yet, they WANTED to know that I was happy and live vicariously through me. Does not bode well for the future of public education, I'll tell you. Two of the 3 were at Commerce with me, and Joe and I helped Jenn get out to Longmeadow; Tiesa returned to South Hadley after getting screwed over by Commerce administrators. I KNOW they are 2 of the good, caring, competent ones, and I'm pretty sure Sue is also. Not a pretty picture that they are so miserable.
