RI elementary school teacher quits in YouTube video

(MyFoxBoston.com) – A second-grade teacher in Rhode Island has quit his job in a YouTube video.

Stephen Round, who worked for the Providence school district, said parents need to know what's being done to their students in the public school system.

In the video, the 15-year veteran elementary school teacher says "I'd rather leave my secure job making $70,000 a year job with benefits and tutor in Connecticut for free than be a part of a system that is diametrically opposed to everything I believe education should be."
