We never needed reading “coaches” because our TEACHERS and PARENTS taught us to read! Maybe if the unions stopped protecting illiterate teachers they wouldn’t need them either.
I say screw the public teachers and their unions. Public teachers are nothing but whores, yet, tax paying folks must buy the condoms to fund their cause.
Gee, let's see, a public teacher’ salary is paid by taxpayers taxes. A public teacher's healthcare insurance is paid by taxpayers taxes. A public teacher's retirement fund is paid by taxpayers taxes. So, what the heck does the public teacher contribute to their socialist dream?
A public teacher thinks, and expects, to have their entire life compensated by those who pay for the public teacher.
I say screw the public teachers and their unions because they are nothing but propoganda extortionist. Fire them, and then, let the public teachers fend for themselves, jobs, rather than sucking off the teat of government.
I know that thousands of Americans would easily fill the void left by the commie public teacher and the public teacher union.
OK, all you commmie teacher on FR, come get me.
Just so you commies know, I will be singing “God Bless America” at the graduation.
The city is proposing to offer buyouts to a pool of teachers who draw full salaries but have no permanent jobs, abandoning efforts to have them laid off but potentially solving one of Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg’s most intractable education issues.
At a speech Thursday morning before the Association for a Better New York, the New York City schools chancellor, Dennis M. Walcott, did not say how much the teachers would be offered but said the buyouts would be “generous.”
The pool, known as the absent teacher reserve, now numbers around 830 and consists largely of teachers whose positions have been lost through budget cuts or school closings but who cannot be laid off under the teachers’ contract because they have done nothing wrong.
Nearly a quarter of the teachers in the pool have been without regular teaching assignments for at least two years, and 44 percent have never formally applied for a new position at another school, according to the Education Department. The teachers’ union has claimed that the stigma of being in the pool has prevented good teachers from being hired by principals, but city officials and some principals have said many of the teachers are mediocre.

Gov. Mark Dayton vetoed a bill on teacher seniority Thursday that was authored by Sen. Pam Wolf (R-51), who represents part of Fridley.
Wolf’s bill, introduced last year to teacher-union criticism, passed the state Senate in February. It would end “last-in, first-out” (LIFO) seniority rules for teacher layoffs.

this has nothing to do with individual public servants, just an attempt to get more union dues payers.

Add these up one by one and you get a phenomenal score that points to the fact that Barrack Hussein Obama is determined to turn America into a Marxist-Socialist society. All of the items in the preceding paragraphs have been put into place. All can be documented very easily. Before you disavow this do an Internet search. The last paragraph alone is not yet cast in stone. You and I will write that paragraph.Will it read as above or will it be a more happy ending for most of America ?
Don’t just belittle the opposition. Search for the truth. We all need to pull together or watch the demise of a free democratic society. Pray for Americans to seek the truth and take action for it will keep us FREE. Our biggest enemy is not China, Russia, North Korea or Iran. Our biggest enemy is a contingent of politicians in Washington, DC . The government will not help, so we need to do it ourselves.
Question....will you delete this, or pass it on to others who don’t know about Obama’s actions and plans for the USA , so that they may know how to vote in November, 2012 and the ensuing years?
It’s your decision. I believe it does matter. How about you?
WHEN - November 2012 comes, it will matter who you vote for!
Democrat logic.
Pretty soon the narcissist in chief will have to start calling in all of those imaginary divisions to defend der fuhrer bunker. Who knows maybe he can start registering 12 to 16 year old’s to vote.
In spite of all his obvious lies, he still has about a 50% approval rating....sheeple is a good description.
