  Case: Flexing your muscle...
In order to make sure that all teachers are involved in maintaining and building the morale of the school, the principal has mandated that each teacher sign up for extracurricular school activities duties as well as extracurricular development team and/or board that they must assign to. Many teachers complain that their time and energy is weighing thin due to the extreme expectancy of their dedication outside of school hours despite their own personal obligations. The principal then informs them that their inability to commit to these duties and development teams affect their end-of-the-year evaluations. If you were the teacher, what would you think?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I've worked for a very demanding supervisor, and it is not fun. One thing I had to learn is how to balance personal life and professional life. As teachers, we are constantly going and having to ensure we are on top of our A games. I do feel administrators are beginning to hold evaluations above their staffs head and it's becoming a tool of correction instead of a tool of reflection and growth. Moral of the story is keep fighting the good fight and all will be well in due time. I feel you'll be a better teacher as a result of the pressure.

Comments: I don't think any teacher should have to deal with this much pressure teachers already do so much but to add other activities seems over the top!
