ABC News: Special Education Teacher with Doctorate Degree Quits with Powerful Resignation Letter

Wendy Bradshaw has multiple degrees, including a doctorate, and years of experience in education, but she said she’d rather quit her job than have to teach her students from Florida’s current curriculum for the public school system.

Bradshaw, of Lakeland, Florida, recently resigned from her position as a special education teacher at the R. Bruce Wagner Elementary School after she said she was fed up with a curriculum that she believes is failing her students.
