[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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 [b]resign from the district.[/b] Horrible to be making these types of cuts at this point in the year. [/quote]

Is this a resignation with prejudice?[/quote]

Not if you do it before June 15. [/quote]
