Presently, the union does not. Time and again I have heard high union officials say that the teachers would not be in the "rubber room" if they didn't do something wrong. With that thinking, nothing will change.Chazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09964739497720364749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-81627394785013897272008-10-17T15:20:00.000-04:002008-10-17T15:20:00.000-04:00I put the blame on squarely on Klein and of course...I put the blame on squarely on Klein and of course by extension on Bloomberg. He gave these bastard principals the power to remove good teachers from the class room. There is no oversight and certainly no accountability in the decisions made by these "psycho principals".<BR/><BR/>This story is repeated again and again in school after school. I know it happened to me and I am not saying I am a great teacher but I am satisfactory--never late , rarely absent, I know my content area and I have 20 years experience in dealing with difficult children. My former principal who was fired simply did not like me(for exercising my consitutional right of free speech) and bannished me to the rubber room.<BR/><BR/>We need for every teacher in the rubber room in similiar circumstances to speak out and tell the world what is happening!JUSTICE not "just us"https://www.blogger.com/profile/05502604957951804040noreply@blogger.com
