A Disgrace to the Profession

This novel was triggered by a real evet—the writing of an underground newsletter by a group of frustrated MIdwestern schoolteachers who wanted to protest the mindlessly bureaucratic school system that constantly interfered with their work. The newsletter generated a huge, positive response from readers, along with the administrative wrath they both hoped and feared it would.As the years passed, and schools continued to decline, two of the newsletter organizers made one more effort to tell their story. A Disgrace to the Profession is the result.
