Here is a good way of taking dedicated specialist teachers and ruining their careers without any good reason:
Charles Dolar, the high school band director at Wolfson High School, could lose his job — because he failed a math test.
Florida requires its teachers to pass the Florida Teacher Certification Exam to remain employed by schools. There are four different types of tests — General Knowledge, Professional Education, Educational Leadership and numerous subject exams, including math — and testing requirements vary by individual.
Dolar told WTLV that he had to take four parts of the exam, and passed all but math.
“I was devastated, I actually fell apart in the place, and they had to escort me out and everything because that was my whole life right there,” he said.
Although Dolar worked with a tutor, he still failed to pass the test a second time, but he’s not giving up and is going for a third.
It is shameful that this teacher is being put through this stressful and humiliating process. And for what?
