There's a story in today's N&O about a survey that has found that some teachers in the Triangle and across the state are not at all happy in their schools and with the way they are run.

School officials have started using the surveys as assessments for school principals. It appears some have lost their jobs or been transferred because of the surveys.

My mom is a retired school teacher - so I heard plenty about the stress of being a teacher growing up. I know it is far from an easy job.

Do your children's teachers like their school? Do they think it has a good teaching and learning environment? Can you tell?
