  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.

What about people with other jobs? You may want to contact someone at the board.
