If all you concerned parents are truly concerned about your children's education, then why don't you ask the teachers for their professional opinion. I know 1st hand that a number of teachers are considering leaving R8, and more would if they could find positions elsewhere. Parents should ask how much time teachers Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5985022.post-49031432524864888982014-12-09T10:22:21.921-08:002014-12-09T10:22:21.921-08:00Huff has to go.

That suggests something more than bitterness, because he actually has an argument whether you try to characterize it as something else or not.

He spews his bitterness and a few people egg him on, so his ego is just built up enough to make him feel he has all the answers.
