It's Raining, It's Pouring - And We Are Drowning

"Long as I remember the rain been comin down.
Clouds of mystry pourin' confusion on the ground.
Good men through the ages, tryin to find the sun;
And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain." - Credence Clearwater Revival

I've "pumped a lot "pain"" on my blogs. I've written about how I perceive the "HCDS system" having a propensity towards obfuscation, parsing of words and unprofessional actions that thwart parents when they attempt to advocate for their kids.

When I read of teachers, and a lone administrator, being treated in the same manner, it bothers me. I will keep banging the drum. I am more convinced that not only are there countless parents that are treated that way, but there are countless employees that are treated that way.

I can defend my allegations because I have the goods and the know how to present it. But it took me six years to realize I needed some specialized knowledge and a few more years to develop the skills. Most parents and teachers don't survive that long. I read the book "Death By Education" many years ago. It made sense to me, because I knew a lot of people within the school system that were caught between a rock and a hard place, or ethics and a job.

I am starting to believe more strongly that the one's who give up their ethics are rewarded - those who don't are dealt with severely.

Here is a case that I can relate to even though I am not an employee.

Some day maybe the rain will stop.
