    Teacher’s Resignation Letter Goes Viral: ?My profession ? no longer exists?

    Just last week, controversy surrounded several educators in the Atlanta Public Schools System, after they were allegedly involved in a standardized testing cheating scandal…

    Coincidentally, a letter of resignation from a teacher in New York has gone viral after the teacher’s lengthy emotional description of the profession.

    Gerald J. Conti, a social studies teacher at Westhill High School in Syracuse, N.Y., submitted his letter of resignation after enduring 40+ years of teaching teens. He speaks out against school reforms that he believes are demeaning the noble profession, and eloquently describes his disappointment, stating:

    With regard to my profession, I have truly attempted to live John Dewey?s famous quotation (now likely clich? with me, I?ve used it so very often) that ?Education is not preparation for life, education is life itself.?

    This type of total immersion is what I have always referred to as teaching ?heavy,? working hard, spending time, researching, attending to details and never feeling satisfied that I knew enough on any topic. I now find that this approach to my profession is not only devalued, but denigrated and perhaps, in some quarters despised.

    A total of 35 Atlanta Public Schools educators have been indicted in a cheating scandal that has been under investigation since 2009. All but three of them have surrendered and turned themselves in to Fulton County jail for booking.

    Former schools superintendent Beverly Hall (pictured above) was indicted on charges of racketeering, false statements and writings, theft by taking and false swearing in a cheating scandal that has rocked the public school system of Atlanta.

    A grand jury had originally recommended a $7.5 million bond for Hall, but that amount was reduced to?$200,000 after negotiations with prosecutors. She is one of the few who have managed to bond out of Fulton County jail.
