APS teacher morale horrifically bad throughout the district

APS Supt Winston Brooks, in a Journal report, link, suggested that “75 percent of the morale problem is because of the PED reforms and 25 percent is because of the implementation of the new common core standards.”

Consider for a moment, the statistical unlikelihood that his estimations are accurate.  Are there really no other factors in declining morale among teachers; not even one?

Bad times and bad morale don't necessarily correlate.
Good leaders can get people through bad times and
with their chins up.

Bad leadership and bad morale do correlate, directly.

Teacher evaluation and common core are part of the problem for certain.  I would venture that most teachers would point to other problems as well.  For one; the administrative failure with regard to student discipline and chronically disruptive students.

Brooks would like to draw attention away from his bad leadership for selfish reasons.

The Journal, apparently, would like to help.

A simple survey of teachers would reveal the truth and so much more.  Therefore, a simple survey of teachers will not be done.

Not by APS, not by the Journal, and oddly enough,
not by teachers (unions).
