fair_jour: "Taking on" the administration of a school is an exhausting task. One must consider, if this SLP is removed, who is the replacement and what are their qualifications? Would this individual meet the needs? Once again, are you aware of a resource library for "listening" activities?

faire_jour: Are "they" willing to file a complaint through the necessary chain of command?
