Previous employment references are pretty tight now days...people are too afraid to say anything...I would imagine a school would be too...

Anyway I have over the years seen people who receive critism to the point of probabtion pull out of it...although many times...more often than not...I've seen self-destruction...

It can feel like you are being signled out...I don't know your situation...you may be? or are you? are your filters looking at this correctly?

You and I can go through some of the deficiencies and see where they can be corrected.
You're right, fighting it may not have the outcome that she prefers but allowing them to get away with this type of treatment is just humiliating and sends the message that it is okay and so they will do it again! I realize you have to do what is best for you and it also depends on your previous reviews as well as your filter... Someone that I know used to say that it you don't stand for something, then you will fall for anything!
