They also know which ones are teaching calculus to special ed high school students and which ones are teaching kazoo to kindergarteners. Not to malign what you do, I'm sure the kids enjoy it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-60106543036639743642012-01-27T13:55:21.411-08:002012-01-27T13:55:21.411-08:00Deb, I wouldn't hold my breath on that...
I&#...Deb, I wouldn't hold my breath on that...<br /><br />I've said this over and over again: corporate America has no right to come into schools and tell educators what to do when they are such major screw-ups themselves. Get your own damn house in order before you start telling us what to do.Dukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16535645107179796099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-83786200095714808722012-01-27T13:24:28.446-08:002012-01-27T13:24:28.446-08:00Duke,

If the push is to corporatize education - lets look at how market systems have worked in the corporate world -who has walked off with the millions, who was left holding the bag, and who had to bail them out! So, if it goes equally as well in education, can we expect that a few years from now the Federal Government will be willing to bail out the entire country's public education system?Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01003814941132010913noreply@blogger.com
