None of their responsibilities is more basic than their duty to provide a quality education for all students. On the best day in Oklahoma City, it's a tough task

It always slays me when reporters/teachers complain and lament that teaching is a "tough task".

Teaching is a job that is extremely difficult and possibly the most important job. Teachers are the reason we have Doctors, Lawyers, Dentists, etc. Without teachers, we would be in big trouble. I know that is not popular but not every parent is equipped to teach....sorry but that is a fact.
