The dream act is such shiat

[mrplunkey]

More than a few teachers were fired from my public high school. Just sayin'.

Not that it matters. They've been laid off by the thousands lately.

Well now if you screw a 12 year old female student or shoot-up the school, I'm sure there's a 54-step product you can follow to fire them.

And no, I don't consider the layoffs being made as a part of cities/states going bankrupt the same thing. That's just the government learning to live like the rest of us and not spend more than they collect. If those jobs were that precious, they could probably stand to downsize those lucrative pension programs where you retire early with a huge portion of your last years' pay.

Only maybe half of the teachers fired while I was in HS were fire for inappropriate relations with students.











Seriously, though.

We had a math teacher who mysteriously left his wife and mysteriously married his former sixth-grade student (who he'd been strangely hanging out with for years) the day she turned 18.

Alot of sluts in your school? Where did you go again?

well...school teachers are college-educated professionals (i.e., they had to take state examinations to get their jobs), with continuing education requirements (like all professionals). however, their pay rate is generally not in-line with other professionals that have similar requirements...they get a significant portion of their payday when they retire...if they are willing to accept that, who am i to argue??

I ran into a big mouthed mother of a girl I barely knew right after I graduated and she told me her daughter was dating/moving in with my old math teacher.

She swore up and down they waited to date until she graduated. Stupid mother's wishful thinking. As if they weren't talking inappropriately before graduation, considering they started dating a month later.

He wasn't one of the fired ones, though.

That is awesome, I guess?

I like the idea of decertifying teacher's unions and putting together a comprehensive plan for teachers policing themselves. If they do that, I'd be all for a substantial (i.e. 25%-40%) increase in salaries in lower rate of pay markets.

In Florida, 50% of teachers' pay is based on their students' test scores and new teachers get no tenure.

school districts need to be empowered to treat their teachers like any other professional...you meet expectations, you get paid; you exceed expectations, you get paid more; you fail to meet expectations, you get fired.
