There are so many misstatements in your post, I don't know whether to laugh or to cry. I am not even going to bother with refuting it.

Teachers are easily fired, and their "bosses," meaning principals, have no accountability for their actions. That in a nutshell is why these reform schemes don't work. It is not like private sector work.
