Dauphin Jr High School

I was a parent and a teacherMy child attended this school and did well. As a parent, there was an issue his last year there with a teacher who was not performing her duties. It took most of the class withdrawing and two other students (including mine) almost withdrawing for administration to address the situation. As a teacher, you are not treated equally with the other staff. There is a definite "clique". I enjoyed teaching there and would have continued, but I was not given the opportunity because the principal lied to my face. She told me my class would be cut because of low enrollment when she had already asked another person to teach that class. She had no basis to terminate my teaching there. At no time during the school year did she come to me and let me know if I was doing anything wrong in order for me to correct it. I performed my duties according to the curriculum and teacher manual. So, this came as a shock to me. I enjoyed teaching and I thoroughly enjoyed my students. I was really looking forward to the next school year. This was a very shady and low down move on administration's part. In my opinion, I would not teach there (even if I was asked back).
