Miami-Dade schools will be open Monday and parents should send their kids to class as usual, school district officials said Sunday, despite possible teacher absences to protest controversial legislation that would overhaul teacher pay and tenure.

[SoFloFreeper]

The Florida legislature has passed a bill to get rid of TENURE, and make teachers DEMONSTRATE kids are learning.

Charlie Crist, aka Obama Huggin' Weasel, may veto the bill.

Fire them all and replace them. This is unacceptable, “WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN”!

[pnh102]

Fire them all. It can’t be that hard to find people who would willing to do the work in this economy.

[Red in Blue PA]

People are striking in this economy?

[Yo-Yo]

Good luck finding replacement teachers for Miami-Dade.

[Loud Mime]

Freeper-Teachers!

That will get the liberal educrats off their butts in a hurry.

[DuncanWaring]

How’s your school?

[Daisyjane69]

It should take them about ten seconds to replace these teachers; there are laid off teachers from coast to coast these days.

[who knows what evil?]

Close all public schools...yes; we can!

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Firing union teachers is RACIST!

[driftdiver]

The teachers (union) doesn’t like the fact that performance is tied to their compensation. The bill isn’t perfect but its certainly a step in the right direction.

Crist will most likely veto the bill though. He’s having a hissy fit with the Florida GOP because they won’t just give him the senate ticket.

Send in Cesar Millan.

Better yet, shut the schools down and rent the buildings to someone who wants to run a real school.

Isn’t government wonderful?

They land on the beach every few hours or so...

[ladyjane]

Not sure it will be easy to replace them with qualified teachers. It’s Miama-Dade. Would you work there?

[Daisyjane69]

not me, but my sweetie works on the southside of Chicago.

Think of Afghanistan.

They prove it’s not about the CHILDREN it’s only about them.

Tell you what, why don't YOU step into my inner city classroom and TEACH for a week. I'll even provide you with lesson plans and resources. All you have to do is keep control of the class, TEACH the material and grade the 200+ papers each week. Last year we had a teacher jumped outside his class right across the hall from mine (I was out sick that day) by an entire family who took offense that the teacher had confiscated the female studen't iPod. The girl SLAPPED the teacher on the spot and was taken by security. According to board policy she should have been arrested but the liberal principal then said poor thing, not her fault and put her on outdoor suspension (vacation). So the family consisting of crackhead mom and other sister and golden gloves boxer brother jumps the teacher and they break his jaw in three places. Gee all that and a tiny paycheck too! Walk a mile in my shoes before you shoot your big mouth off in reference to something about which you are totally ignorant.
