dude, screw that. Besides the unreasonable expectations, being put in a potentially unsafe situation is unacceptable.

eff that dude and the horse he rode in on.

Sounds like a wrongful dismissal lawsuit in the making; indifference to workload and safety conditions. Your blow-up is largely immaterial to the issues at hand, if you had put management on notice prior to this. That last part is key.

I have a hard time wrapping my head around the for-profit social work that you folks have down there. A friend of mine worked for Three Springs.

My sister is a Special-Ed highschool teacher that deals with similar things although her kids are still in school and are more verbally aggressive then physical although she does break up her fair share of fights. She is looking to move to Annapolis to be with her boyfriend and has heard horrible things about MD's school system. Hate to hear about this OTB. I know from her just how hard that job can be.

All the bad things you've heard of about most Maryland schools are true...with the exception of Anne Arundel County (which is where Annapolis is located).

Baltimore is worse than you can imagine.....

My mom teaches the same kind of kids. It really takes a special kind of person to deal with them. Best of luck to you!
