But I can't blame her for trying to cover up and prevent grad rates from dropping, which the Post will take up with glee as part of the assault to close down more public schools and make more teachers ATRS. And the union is also facing that assault on its members - so they also have an interest in high scores. It is no win for anyone but the deformers. Which is why ATRs need to look beyond their own situation and jump into the battle against ed deform as the major threat -- ATRs are the symptom. When there are a thousand more all of you end up competing with each other with the newbies having a chance to be hired due to lower salary. ed notes onlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15018047869059226777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33431390.post-18697403433720058592015-08-05T08:28:04.859-04:002015-08-05T08:28:04.859-04:00It is a no win for DeBlasio/Farina. Without those ...It is a no win for DeBlasio/Farina. Without those credit recovery courses many schools would go into receivership. Bloomberg/Klien iniatied them to keep their stats up. Once out they are out it is used to discredit (pardon the pun) the current administration. Where's the union on all this? Where were they when this was going on under Bloomy? Shouldn't they have brought attention to it back then, so maybe it wouldn't be an issue now? What about all those teachers who reported all this long before DeBlasio/Farina came in? Where are those teachers? Terminated, ATRs or resigned. Also, and I understand why the union isn't , some type of show of support for the current administration might be applicable. Totally ignoring everything and sending an email about an increase in Teachers Choice (again) seems surreal.Bronx ATRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08787717237141454628noreply@blogger.com
