[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 344262, member: 84"] You know what? No matter how utterly poor husband and I have been, we've always supported the school levi's. (well, except for the 2nd one to build news schools after the board spent the 1st one's money on something totally insane) Teachers are under paid and over worked and mostly unappreciated. I'll support a levi every time that gives them a better salary or gives the kids better supplies ect. That said........somehow they have got to find a way to keep the good dedicated teachers in place while weeding out the bulk of bad ones. As bad as our schools here are, we have some excellent teachers.......if we don't lose them to more competitive salaries elsewhere. But the bad ones.........OMG are they horrible........and honestly.......they are most likely why the state is threatening to take over our school system. Unions can be such a good thing. But when they get to powerful they stop being a good thing and become a handicapp. While the union helps with salary and benefits.......it also plays a huge role in keeping bad teachers in place. I just can't stand people who whine about the schools........yet flat out refuse to vote for a levi because it will make their taxes go up. sheesh 88 teachers in one school?? A bit of overkill and not impressive. So? Who hired those 88 teachers and why isn't their head on the chopping block?? [/QUOTE]
