Another idea for consideration...

All across the country, but particularly in NYS, some of the youngest and most enthusiastic teachers are getting fired, because the teacher’s unions demand “seniority” be kept (last hired, first fired).

The older burned out teachers get to keep their jobs through tenure and collective bargaining, and they refuse to take salary cuts to keep the younger teachers, who make much less, on the payroll. They are totally selfish, greedy, and unconcerned about the profession of teaching, just their scheduled salary increases, benefits, and retirement pay.

Send the word out that Wisconsin is looking to hire younger qualified teachers, and watch them flock to Wisconsin to take these jobs.

If every state would do the same, we could really make some progress in education, finally. It is long past time to get rid of the NEA, a totally left-dominated union that is ruining our educational system in the USA, and doesn’t give a flying freep about our children.

I saw that yesterday in spades with a public school “counselor”.

I would definitely home school if I could do it all over.
