Besides attending (and writing about) the events listed in the previous post, here are some of the areas I hope to write about this week:
Why does Weingarten embrace holding teachers accountable (See The Chief) when they have absolutely no say in their professions? Why is she grading schools, albeit with an extension (a fairly light extension) of criteria?
The Battle of the Rubber Rooms: Teachers4Action vs. Betsy Combier and the UFT. Or how Betsy got her job at the UFT.

More True Confessions: I bribed kids
