Every year, there should be a grading of teachers. If they do not pass, they do NOT come back.
There are certain jobs in this country that are NOT a right: MD's; RN's and teachers. In so many ways, you have other peoples lives in your hands. I personally have gotten into it with my sons teachers in regards not only to how they teach, but WHAT they teach.
I find it appalling that so many are using class room time to preach their political opinions. Even in K-4. Appalling.
I took the time to educate my children, teaching them not only to read everything, but analyze WHO wrote it. Why? and than fact check it with OLDER books. Or when seeing something on the TV, check it out. It became apparent at a very young age for them that the MSM lies. Teachers, sadly, lie. When my own children can 'school' their history teachers, there is something wrong with the system. Appallingly wrong.
Unions have NO business in anything but working trades: electricians, pipe-fitters, carpentry workers, to help them on LARGE jobs - that is one of the problems. Unions do not care about what the truth or reality is, they - like democrats - want to keep everything under their thumbs to keep them in power, IF someone truly cared about the children, THEIR children and grandchildren, they would open their eyes and realize this country has taken a dangerous, deadly even, path towards implosion of all core values. Liberals cannot say they are the party of the people. They do NOT tolerate all people. Proof they are not what they claim to be.
