Many teachers seem to want to do the right thing but they are very careful about what they can do or say for fear of getting sued.

It is in a towns best interest for their schools to do well - if not property values suffer. I saw this happen to a few towns several years ago. When the prop values stall it is only a matter of time before the next steps happen which help to bring it all down then the state has to come in to "help" by throwing money at the problem.

We are so good at looking to throw money at a problem until it goes away.
