(a rant inspired by a GD thread about a kid who peed in a bottle because the teacher wouldn't give him a pass).

"We Serve Students.

Is that so difficult to understand?

I left the classroom to begin administering programs.

I hire teachers, and last year I had to replace a teacher that didn't fit.

Some teachers get it and other teachers don't.

Everything I do is to support teachers so that they can support students.

Every teacher's job is to support students.

Everyone in my building "gets it", most importantly the kids and parents.

And the students return the favor with positive outputs and attitudes that are of immeasurable value to everyone in the picture.

Our only discipline issues are with visiting students.

That it may be difficult or impossible to implement this principal in every school and district, the fact remains:

Our role is to serve students, and I feel that whenever this isn't understood and celebrated, that failure and grief are soon to follow.

PS: let kids used the restroom, FFS.
