Just curious, would you be willing to say why? Are you a teacher? A parent? Both?

I decline is a perfectly fine answer. Not trying to be nosy, but kids and schools is a big part of my life. I like to learn about other's experiences too.

Parent, and because I don't see the point. I agree with elspode in that most of what goes on in [most public] schools has nothing whatsoever to do with education. I see [most public] schools as being glorified daycare centers, more concerned with crowd control than anything else. As a parent, what's the point in fighting with administrators? What is the reward? If I make the calls, and go to the meetings, and they eventually move the bully's seat - what have I won?
