'Let me tell you why those who ooze passion for teaching are leaving the occupation like their hair is on fire.' Kindergarten teacher's post goes viral:
Jessica Gentry, a former kindergarten teacher at Stone Spring Elementary School in Harrisonburg, Virginia, said she loves children, but that wasn't enough for her to stay in the job she's had for the last 12 years.
She goes on to outline the five main reasons why she felt she needed to leave. Among them: kids behaving poorly because of a lack of parental involvement; a move by schools to embrace technology at the expense of relationship building; taking away planning an instructional time from teachers; parents who do not act in partnership with teachers but against them; and the jeopardy of her own mental and physical health.
Gentry told"Good Morning America" the decision to leave was a difficult one, and she reached out to human resources on two occasions. Michael Richards, the superintendent of Harrisonburg City Public Schools told"GMA" it is the first time he has heard about the accusations Gentry makes with regard to students with disabilities.
