[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like our so called union is a big fail for teachers. Our Superintendent owns the union and she tells them what to do.[/quote]

Hilarious. They got everything they asked for in their first contract, with the exception of 1% of the salary increase. You’re a clown[/quote]

This came at a price. There are currently hundreds of school-based instructional positions being cut to balance the budget. Destaff letters are still being sent out. Not sure I would call this a win. [/quote]

+1. I'm being destaffed. Even though I'm arguably a better teacher than others in my dept (based on test scores and student opinions), I'm getting cut because I have only 9 years in the county vs over 15 for the other teachers. They care about seniority rather than effectiveness. Unions are selfish entities that haven't been relevant since the 1950s. [/quote]

Forgive my ignorance, is this the same as being laid off?

Asking because I keep hearing about a severe shortage?[/quote]

Destaffed teachers are usually placed at another school.[/quote]

Placed at another school in another position or teaching assignment. There’s no mother option this late in the year but to take these unwanted assignment or resign from the district. Horrible to be making these types of cuts at this point in the year. [/quote]
