Sweetwater teachers may strike over district policies
Agreed as well. Actual strikes are more efficient than any boasting threats or several prior actions by SEA. Not saying if a strike is right or wrong, but doing this will definitely send a clearer message.— November 28, 2013 7:59 a.m.

Efficient at being a good role model, not a "poor" or "bad" one. This would also include asking these groups about labeling "board members" or any other public servant in education. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.— November 28, 2013 7:55 a.m.

Never used the word "poor". You used it. Attend SEA meetings at schools, observe, and formulate opinions based on those observations. After that, ask parents throughout the community which educators at sites are the most efficient. The parents opinion is the most relevant. The students opinions are next, followed by the ones who evaluate them. There are many "tiers" below these 3 groups.— November 28, 2013 12:48 a.m.

Just because public officials don't model good public behavior is not an excuse for SEA advocates. It will be easy to detect who the real leaders and role models are based on their reactions to the situation, whether they are board members, SEA members, or otherwise.— November 27, 2013 6:09 p.m.
Sweetwater teachers may strike over district policies
Interesting how the SEA president sent an email to teachers (or other SEA members who "pretend" to be teachers at the district office) to work to the rule and be a role model. Be a good role model? Objectively, the SEA president has acted professional while appearing in the media. But as for some of these other teachers or reps? If you have kids, would you really want yours to emulate some of these people? I'm sure more than 50% of the people at the protest at the board meeting do a great job at their school site. I'm also sure that percentage above shoots way up for the number of teachers who didn't attend that rally. It's unfortunate though that there are some who represent themselves as tools and make the SEA look bad, as......role models.— November 27, 2013 9:37 a.m.
