Teachers Union Gets Greedy…then FIRED
I love hearing stories like this where the people in charge take a stance and say “You’re not going to bully us around with your union”. Whether these teachers were all together or 50/50 they still participate in the union. If they are going to let them speak on their behalf they better make sure they are singing the right tune.
Teachers: “Pay us more money and we’ll make your kids wicked smart”
Superintendent: “You can’t teach at the rate you’re being paid now, will you somehow get better with more money?”
Teachers: “Dammit… We hate rhetorical questions.”
Here’s the kicker. Now that all of these failing teachers are out of work they’re going to have a hard time finding teaching jobs again. Why would anyone school hire a teacher that was fired from a school that failed this well. I say failed well because looking at the test scores these teachers and students are the definition of #FAIL.
