I hear you and I have experienced the same thing at the local schools. But I will say that my wife is a teacher and there are many more kids with serious needs today than I believe there were when she and I went to school. Not a statistic I can back up, but as a grumpy old man I think about that too.

Our school tries to keep class size below 15 and there is a classroom helper. All those interventions take paperwork and that could be the problem with workload. I would like to think a good school administrator could develop a good strategy so that eventually the daily paperwork creates the end reports.
