Many professions have associations for workers with similar jobs to share ideas and successes. The government "public" school industry takes this concept to an incredible (and costly) level.

 

School boards, administrators, business officials, principals, public relations officials, nurses, science teachers, psychologists, transportation directors, special education administrators, superintendents, social workers, food service managers - to name a few - all have "associations." For a partial list, visit this link.

 

Many of these associations maintain legislative agendas, some of which promote more and more revenue, while very few drive for responsible spending or improved student achievement.
