In today's Ft. Worth Star Telegram there is an article that deplores that the experience level of school teachers in poor neighborhoods is less than those teachers in schools in more affluent neighborhoods. The article doesn't really get at the root causes of why this is true. It is possible that teachers in those poor neighborhoods get frustrated and quit or manage to get a transfer. We live in a free society, so we can't force teachers to work in environments they don't like. From what I have heard, the problem, particularly in elementary schools, is not the students, but instead is their parents.
