I had a friend who tried sticking up for his students when the school’s Zero Tolerance Drug Policy™ meant that they couldn’t carry epipens around them. The Principal’s defense when he was told he was he was going to get sued for a wrongful death was “I’ve been sued before”. My friend was let go the following year and didn’t have the energy to sue.
Considering the overall state of the US, I don’t think my anecdotes are exactly exceptions. Everything I’ve feared would happen is happening.
You are literally now listing an example of a teacher sticking their neck out for their students yet still running with this notion that they aren’t passionate and don’t care.
You can’t help but blame the wrong people, and thats insane to me.

They aren’t a teacher anymore. The system crushed him and he left.
