Genuinely fascinating that this was built. I feel like anyone could have told the architect that this structure is off-putting, even scary. No one has ever had nightmares about the Bean. NYC really needed the staircase from Pathologic?

If it is anything like my old state, NY, you can ignore a lot of the standards. Over specificity means extremely low number of test questions on that standard and low variety in the test questions when they show up.

The fact that TPT exists in the way that it does is baffling. We spend so much on education, the federal government or a large state could just buy TPT, run it at cost. New teachers are swamped by the need to develop a curriculum, lesson plans, and make materials and those are all things a government would be good at providing. Why does every teacher need to reinvent the wheel.

Testing random students daily would be a lower workload than what was expected the previous school I worked at where I had to test all students daily.

Nope, the classroom part is easy. Even if the kids are annoying, most of them will learn. But most importantly the amount of energy you can spend in each class is capped. It is, at worst, 45 minutes of walking and yelling. And admin very rarely watches the classes. They are out of their element in the classes. They just want to see the lesson plans and their expectations for those lesson plans are infinite and bizarre, 6+ pages per 45 minute class, timed to the minute, all content squeezed into a spreadsheet where most columns only have one word and one column has paragraphs, mandatory template looks like shit so they always have something to complain about.

Bolsonaro is the closest politician to Trump in the world and he has been in the hospital almost dead his entire life.

You get to see someone blow glass, eat a turkey leg, buy a wizard staff and a dragon puppet, and see a knife thrower and then Romeo and Juliet back to back.
