Soandso is an amazing teacher. She should be able to teach first one up to get to assistant principal. Everything should be flourishing. That has been proven to cause retention and School Achievement to go way up. It is not actually the things we think it is. Why do you think that why do we think they are motivated by pay more than us . Some of the most unselfish people out there working. After certain necessities, that is not a motivating factor. It is success, being heard, all the things that would motivate us. This conversation about tenure is confusing to me. Them how to be navy seals, and then hold them accountable. Then give them whatever they want, tenure and all of that. What c
