Oh m’gosh, is this outrageous or what? Did you know that “Prop 74” will increase the time it takes a teacher to get TENURE! It goes from 2 years to 5 years. It gets worse, in this period the employee could actually be fired if they can’t do their job.
Well, boo-hoo, I don’t think any of them ought to have tenure! When did YOU get tenure on YOUR job? Perhaps miraculously, but I’ve survived 30 plus years in the work place without tenure.
If tenure was so wonderful why do California schools rank among the worst in the nation? Why are high school graduation rates at 70% for the last decade?
Many that do graduate can barely read and write. And this is sadly not uncommon for the 12 years of public education. Meanwhile, private schools have been turning out stellar students for less than half the per student cost of the public side. And for this bad performance, the California Teachers Union wants us to keep it status quo. Now that is outrageous and the CTA is operating strictly for what’s in the best interest of their membership, not your students, not the future of California or the nation!
