While this is a compliment as I am seen as an expert in my area, I dislike that we are not paid anything additional and it takes time from our students. Many of the days we get together take place during the school day so my students have a sub. Can you politely decline an assignment? How do you make the "boss" see that you are taking away from kids by pulling us from the classroom? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) If your principal is a good principal and has been in the classroom, the he or she will understand that your students are the absolute most important thing to you. On the days that you are out, they are not learning anything. I think you declining for this purpose shows how professional and committed you are to your students. A good principal would totally understand that as long as you are active in your school.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: This solution shows the teachers commitment to their students.

I also think that supporting efforts to improve tests are important as well. Rated On: February 23, 2018 3:44 pm Rated By: aJysah
