The total lack of brain power in the public school administration has got me wondering about what is it that makes people seek this job.
My Mom worked in a big 2300 student high school for years. she was the office secy. there was an attendence lady, a nurse, and my mom. one principal. four administrators in a school of 2300, that same school with 400 fewer kids now has 21 full time administration, principal, asst principal, four student deans, two resourse (unarmed) officers, a student compliance officer, a diversity manager, and 11 AA's secretaries. The latest newsletter was beggging the district to raise a mil rate levy because the school was under staffed, and they might have to let teachers go in order to pay for staffing,(read that again slowly and see if it makes sense to you either.)
To understand these people who are so fearful of objects vs being fearful of people who want to commit evil acts against children requires a suspension of reality. They have spent so much time telling themselves that are no bad kids, only good kids who have been exposed to evil objects.

when the run out of know vices for the kids, they have to invent new ones or else the whole world will see that the emperor has no clothes.
after you plug in ten thousand variables, and nothing changes, maybe it is the constant that needs attention
They can not admit that they are wrong. to do so is economic suicide.
