If there’s one thing teachers seem to like complaining about, it’s administrators. I just picked this story up and thought it was powerfully relevant.
It was the best of schools, it was the worst of schools, but it was summer school and Mr. Sandoval was the only ESL teacher. The summer principal, Mr. Prince, stopped him in the hall, introduced himself, and said, “Listen, it’s very important that you give homework every day, and to make sure the kids know about it, I want you to post it at the beginning of each class, and leave it there for the entire period.”
