Y'all are just doing normal everyday heinous crimes against humanity.

So I am being released from my position. At first they told me they "didn't see the growth they wanted from me between each year". Sure, okay, despite this being my most effective year I'll take it. Fine.

I come to learn that the district is very meticulously releasing multiple non-tenured teachers like myself. In addition, it's one per core content area, and from each school. I know of a minimum of 12 positions that they're getting rid of. A week before this, we were assured the budget didn't go down at all and all positions were safe, hence why at first I just accepted being released.

Now I'm furious, cause while it's always possible I'd have been released anyway, it's obvious I'm getting released because I'm the only non-tenured science teacher in this building. I know of one teacher who's trying to sue. I don't think I'd be as mad if the district was being transparent, but the bs about the budget not moving and then releasing at least a dozen teachers is absurd.

Honestly I just don't know what to do at this point. I really thought I'd found a home in this district but getting screwed like this makes me lose hope I'll ever find a spot I can stay in. And then if I stop teaching I have no idea what I'd do otherwise. The whole situations sucks.
