We most likely will be left with a small skeletal infrastructure of public schools. Many dominated countries which were forced to implement neo-liberal policies in education wound up with a majority of very inferior privately managed, resource-starved schools and very few similarly resource-starved public schools. Unfortunately, with the proliferation of the charter school movement, that's where U.S. schools are heading. It's total government disinvestment in public education.Tony Da Fighternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33431390.post-70404304133927067972016-08-28T11:38:44.885-04:002016-08-28T11:38:44.885-04:00DOE starting salary is $51,650 as of May 2016.

She is rather working longer hours for more money. By the way, I have a friend who was discontinued from the DOE a couple of years ago and is now in an NYC charter school. The one good thing that she likes about the charter school is that there is is no Danielson BS. She hardly ever gets observed. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
