    Post: Thoughts on Obama's Race to the Top
    Posted by: Callee Fornya on 9/03/09

    What are your thoughts on Race to the Top. It sounds like
    a new and more terrible addition to NCLB. What are Obama
    and his lackeys--CRAZY! Any teacher who supports this
    nonsense is crazy too!! How on earth can teacher
    evaluations be tied to test scores? That is holding
    teachers in Watts to the same standard as Beverly Hills!
    Also, some years are harder than others. And yet the
    funding is given to state that promote this garbage. I
    can't believe there is anyone out there who thinks this is
    a good idea.

    Then it will get very political. The suck up lackey
    teacher will win the best kids. Those who don't suck up
    could get the low kids with behavioral issues.

    This is not a good time to be a teacher.
