Castle Park Middle School principal punches back!!
It is amazing to see how when teachers are expected to actually work hard and provide acceptable results, a response of dissatisfaction and indignation arises with endless complaints and uproar from those who feel threatened by the level of expectation created along with friends and relatives working in the same field. I guess this happens when people over-relay on unions and grow old with the idea that they're their own bosses with enough power to overlook a principal's authority and backed, of course, by those misinformed union members; not to mention the misleading ideology of being "untouchable" and deliberately disregarding the true notion of employee-employer relationship in which the employee works UNDER the supervision of a principal in order to provide satisfying results that appeal to the supervisor/principal. With that in mind, if results are not met, employees are to be held responsible and accountable. If expectations are not met then perhaps, and sadly, that employee does not belong in that workplace, prove of that is the reason as to why human resources has been quite busy in the past few months with the relocation of employees. Nonetheless, it is that feeling of defeat that many, unsurprisingly, would try to fabricate uncertain and, at some level of degree, farcical stories with fixed ideas and opinions in order to discredit others with the purpose to fulfill their urgency of "fight back". Well knowing and taking into consideration that many would follow no matter what. I believe all this is a factual reason as to why there’s a great deal of incompetent educators in the district. I'm assuming people would always try to "do something about it" in order to feel like good do-ers and “cover up” their incompetency and, despairingly, stating they do it all in the name of students.
