I'm glad to see that I am not alone.

I used to wonder why I would see white teachers coming to my school to teach. The school where I was teaching is 99% black with about 85% on free/reduced lunch. I started talking to them and realized that it was for OPPORTUNITY. that's all. It was a job experience that they were after. Nothing more. Often to get into certain programs or have student loans reduced, etc. they have to teach in the lowest performing schools for the benefits.

I know that they ended up enjoying their experience cause some of them have been there for some years!
