Private schools don’t do the same job public teachers do. Public teachers must take ALL students coming in the door. Private schools get to DISCRIMINATE based on academic ability and behavior.

Make the public school kids act like their private school counterparts and most teachers would gladly take a pay cut.

The harder or more undesirable the job the more money you end up spending to get it done.

Fair point.

But it still doesn’t explain why 70% of the 8th graders in WI public schools can’t read to level.

AND, if the teachers’ unions didn’t have a death grip on the public schools, changes and innovations could be implemented to counter the downward trend in educational success.

So, you're saying WI public school teachers would go do something else for work, if they are not compensated at their current rates?

LOL, I'd like to see them try that.

What private enterprise would hire a public school teacher?
