For me the biggest stressor is the fact that the legislator in my state seems to think that as teacher we are working on a factory line producing widgets. They are in the process of attaching our pay to how the students do on end of level testing. Which would be fine if the accountability was equal for parents, students, and teacher. However, in the new system the only person being held accountable is the teachers. We have no power to hold back or fail a student, regardless of how poorly they perform or refuse to do their work. I have several students who will yell you I don't have to do my school work or homework because there is nothing the teacher can do to me. Most of my students who say this also have parents who have no value for education. Though the summers off and vacation are great perks</p></blockquote><p></p>
