[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 707505, member: 16024"] This sounds like a frustrating situation. Do any of the parents stop by during the day? The teacher is neglecting her responsibilities and allowing her aides to do the same. It sounds like all she wants is to collect a paycheck and do as little as possible, and to pass the time by talking with other adults instead of interacting with the kids. Is there any possibility of getting a transfer or a new job somewhere else? If so, I would explain to the principal in the exit interview exactly what the circumstances were and why you felt the need to leave. If changing jobs for next year is not an option, could you talk to the parents and maybe feel them out as to their concerns about the program or how their children are doing/progressing? Maybe you can get some parent feedback that you could justify taking to the teacher or principal. Or maybe a parent would feel understood if they have any concerns, and go to the principal or teacher on their own. Apple [/QUOTE]
