Teaching Position
After being interviewed by the school administration, the teaching
prospect
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 provincial exams.
'You want me to provide them with an equal education regardless of
their
handicaps, and communicate regularly with their parents 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?' Pray for a Teacher
