Michelle Rhee Details Plans for Spreading Education Reform
Her statements about teachers' unions are offensive and incorrect. No one that I know wants to put teachers before students! We all got into teaching for the students, we are not so self-absorbed that we forget that! When I go out to represent members, I always ask myself "would I want this person teaching/working with my child?" When I talk to politicians or other non-educators, I always work for what is best for the student. I wish I could speak directly to Ms. Rhee and tell her that she has it all wrong, testing or under-paid teachers are not what is best for children!! Allowing teachers who are happy and respected to do what they are trained to do IS what is best for children!!
