Something to Consider...

After being interviewed by the school
administration, the prospective teacher
said:
 
'Let me see if
I've got this right.
 
'You want me to go
into that room with all those kids, correct their disruptive
behavior, observe them for
signs of abuse, monitor their dress habits, censor their
T-shirt messages, and
instill in them a love for
learning. 
 
'You want me to
check their backpacks for weapons, wage war on drugs and
sexually transmitted
diseases, and raise their sense of self esteem and personal
pride. 
 
'You want me to
teach them patriotism and good citizenship, sportsmanship and fair
play, and how to
register to vote, balance a checkbook, and apply for a
job. 
 
'You want me to
check their heads for lice, recognize signs of antisocial behavior,
and make sure that
they all pass the final
exams. 
 
'You also want me
to provide them with an equal education regardless of
their 
handicaps, and
communicate regularly with their parents in English, Spanish or
any 
other language, by
letter, telephone, newsletter, and report
card. 
 
'You want me to do
all this with a piece of chalk, a blackboard,a bulletin
board, 
a few books, a big
smile, and a starting salary that qualifies me for food
stamps. 
 
'You want me to do
all this and then you tell me. . . I CAN'T
PRAY?
