Where are all those social concerns? Did you notice all the actions by MORE related to the eval system and have you looked at the MORE blog? Go do your homework and come back and show us where social concerns take priority over the average teacher in MORE? There has been low turnout in UFT elections in every election. Interesting that MORE is the only caucus to hold its own and raise it's profile in the election after only a year of existence. And by the way -- it is the people who decide to join MORE who decide in a democratic way to shape the views of the organization. And those who voted MORE I imagine are not objecting to the MORE agenda all that much.

They put social concerns over teacher concerns. Hence, low turnout during the last elections. MORE's agenda should be driven by teachers the same way staff development should, but isn't. MORE may become like UNITY with it's "top down" agenda. MORE members should take a survey of teachers in their school asking them to write the top 3-5 issues they would like to see the union address. After all, if we vote MORE in they are supposed to represent the rank and file's needs and concerns first!! Just sayin ")Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
