Teachers are easily and often criticized. Waves of criticizm have gained momentum due to what some have termed our "failing schools". This text aims to open a door of understanding of the educators' dilemmas and predicament in an increasingly complicated profession.

This educator's response to the 'failing school' issue offers firsthand knowledge and in depth understanding into rationale other than poor teachers and schools. Pointing a good portion of the responsibility on the students, parents, and communities in their roles in the educational process, McCoy takes into account the complexities of the many duties; responsibilities; frustrations; student, parent, and legal issues facing today's teachers.

William C. McCoy has well over 20 years experience teaching in public schools. Currently he writes full-time from his home in a suburb of Austin, Texas.
