Teacher Appreciation: My school gave Massages today. They didn't include the special area teachers. At an Elementary school.

Slap in the face on Teacher Appreciation. We teach the whole school but we couldn't participate in a massage. At least give me the option to say yes or no.

I teach at a school and there are basically no consequences for student behavior. Kids can start fights, throw pencils or books at teachers, and nothing happens. When I ask why, I’m told the student has a lot going on at home.

Had a fight in my class and the two students were eating in the cafe together laughing. I mean throwing hands. Head locks were involved. These are the boys - third fight. They were able to buy ice cream even after all this from the cafe the same day.

I am burned to the max and I'm an electives teacher. Thankfully I haven't been hit with a book this year. I want to leave this school.
