Joe, you're exactly right. Larger school districts often do not have a good handle on discipline.JRG wrote:I have taught in the Mesquite ISD for 32 years and we finally pay more than Dallas. However, even if the pay was $25,000 more in Dallas than Mesquite, I would not be caught dead teaching there. pun intended.

Although I work for a large school district, my individual campus has a fairly tight leash on discipline. Despite a large number of students with a low socioeconomic status, the students have achieved recognized status with the state. I believe that if we would have allowed them too much slack, as many schools do, they would not have their current achievement levels.
