Because there are not independent measures of their capabilities. Shitty teachers can thrive next to excellent ones, while the latter can be vilified by small, jealous peers and administrators. May God bless the generous, great teachers!
"Johnny's so smart" - mom thinks teacher is insightful.
"I agree" - principal thinks they're great
"We can do better" - crap shoot, great Admins and parents engage, others attack
Some teachers are there for the right reasons, others for the summers off.
Hedgefund managers get fired by the numbers.
