[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree it is shocking to see so many teachers not realize that we are 4 months way from Kim Adams / FEA being sanctioned to speak on their behalf. I to am a union member (ALPA) and have been very active within the union only to bring a moderate voice to leadership (I hate the work). But if membership is not willing to fight to have the groups voice properly heard then you only get the radicals speaking on your behalf. So again, you can say FEA / Kim Adams is some sort of crazy who does not represent you. But unless you get involved you are at her will. [/quote] Then why is she speaking for me now? I am thinking I would rather unionize so I can get fair representation. THIS is not fair representation and it is the SB and leadership who have allowed her to speak with an authority she does not have. Seriously, it’s like they decided to give us the crap lawyer so we never win anything significant. She is the bozo they appointed to represent us because she is a bozo. Okay, I don’t actually mean to hate on this human being so much in such a schoolyard bully kind of way, but she is really pissing me off.[/quote] Collective bargaining will begin to be phased in in May. Passing the school board is a done deal. Teachers will then get to vote on what association will assume collective bargaining for the group. FEA is backed by NEA, now the assumption is that they will be the association that is voted in. However I like so many others would LOVE to see the teachers prevent that from happening. However that takes coordination and organization. Hopefully some people step up and take the lead. [/quote]
