Not only are they not paid enough, but administrators flat out refuse all disciplinary accountability, even going so far as to countermand teachers when they ask disruptive students to leave or be quiet.

I watched it happen in real-time throughout my career. A student would assault another student (sometimes we are talking felony level assault), they would get taken out of the classroom and the perp would return to the classroom before the victim (who could be out for hours or even days).

Visit any teaching subreddit or online community. It's the same across the board. Administrators are enabling a death spiral in academia.
