Reply #71: why aren't teachers & administrators fighting this shit? [View All]

[Hannah Bell]

the "line in the sand" pretty much tells the future.

public ed is targeted for destruction, & so are your salaries, bennies, pensions & positions.

My stepfather's mother was a teacher, pre-WW2. She lived on a poor farm for awhile, that was the degree of insecurity in the profession.

If you have kids thinking of going into education, tell them if they don't get a job in a wealthy area, they'll be competing to work in the local "christian academy" or corporate charter for peanuts & no pension.

marketized ed. everyone above the poverty line will be scrimping to send their kids to as much school as they can afford so the kids won't be totally out of the running for adult perks.

think mexico.
