The Obama administration is dangling $4.3 BILLION in education money (Race to the Top), and California hopes to get $700 million of that – but first it must reform certain education practices – including linking teacher evaluation to student scores.
Many large school districts are refusing to sign on, including state’s second largest, the San Diego Unified, and, naturally all of the teachers unions.
The last thing in any ‘educators” mind(sic) is the word “accountability.”
The head of the California Teachers Association (340,000 members — and that number alone should make you think “Greece”) sent an e-mail to local unions urging them not to sign onto the Obama plan.
