so union’s still have PA’s economy in a death grip, huh? I’m from there.
Yup. I was at a community meeting that had absolutely NOTHING to do with the schools. Through sheer happenstance the topic of charter schools came up, which immediately set off a bunch of other people in the room who were union public school teachers.
You would have thought we were at Pamplona and a red flag had just been waved. The anger and vitriol were unlike anything I’d ever seen before. These people viewed Scott Walker as a near-death experience and set out to make damned sure it does not happen here.
One dollar to a charter school is one less they can try to corral into their compensation package, you see.
Full disclosure: my daughter teaches at a charter school in another state.
