Between the state and the union (The United Federation of Teachers), no one is serving the interest of the children. 6,700 teacher layoffs this year and guess what the effed up part of it is? Young teachers will be the first to go instead of the less quality older teachers. In virtually every field, layoffs are performanced based. Now, in this field where good teaching means so much to the development of a child's mind, poor teachers are finding job security at the expense of better qualified teachers. As stuff starts to hit the fan, I will be going hard with the pen.
I can't believe NYC is even thinking about laying off teachers. Why does anyone want to live in ny? SO many other states are doing quite well. This is crazy that costs of living are going up, taxes are increasing, gas is increasing, sugar tax, and then they lay you off. what the heck!!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree wholeheartedly...priorities are being demagnetized left and right
ReplyDeleteIt is so wrong and untrue to describe older teachers as not good enough. Most senior teachers I know are highly dedicated, many with outstanding creativity and most of all dedicated their entire lives to children. Now that money is the issue lets all beat up on them. Is age and money the real issue here?
ReplyDeleteYou need to review the facts before printing garbage. This is not about teacher performance, this is simply about money and the chancellor and mayor being able to hire new teachers for less. So you, the editor of this article should not print solely on 'hear say'. Get your facts straight first.
ReplyDeleteI am a veteran teacher in the Bronx. Where did you get the information to support your general claim that newer teachers have so much more to offer than experienced teachers?
ReplyDeleteDuring my planning period today, I sat in the back of the classroom while a 2nd year teacher tried to teach a Science lesson. Many students were leaving their seats without permission and many students were legitimately confused because he projected what he wanted them to do without explaining it. He blamed them for not understanding the lesson. To try to remedy this situation, he barked and screamed at them to try to settle them down. It was not a good use of anyone's time.
ALL young teachers are not good at instruction. Please do not generalize. It's not fair.
