This is why school choice is so important. I hope DeVos shuts this shite down.

Reminds me of when my 8th grade history teacher had his students write a letter to the governor regarding cuts to education that led to all first year teachers being handed pink slips

Public employees, by threat of termination, should be forced to remain impartial.

Because it is in German.


CHICAGO — Intense rhetoric between Chicago democrats and Illinois’ republican governor is nothing new, but some parents are upset it is now being played out in a letter sent home with their kids. Chicago Public Schools officials sent home a letter with all 381,000 students blasting Gov. Bruce Rauner and ignoring any role democrats may have played in the state’s budget woes.

The “Dear Parents” letter begins by stating “Governor Bruce Rauner, just like President Trump, has decided to attack those who need the most help.” Twice the letter accuses Gov. Rauner of “cheating” children. Once it says the governor “stole” from kids. The letter goes on to cite Chicago Public Schools CEO Forrest Claypool’s often repeated claim that the governor broke a promise by blocking Chicago from receiving $215 million for city schools.


From last night's thread.

More than the "anti-Trump" element, the problem is that public officials shouldn't be using students to courier partisan talking points to their parents. It has no place. Union officials using dues and funds raised for political purposes to send out mailers is one thing. I don't see how this is defensible.

Any public employee should be barred from taking a biased stance at work or with any work-related systems. Breaking that should be punishable by termination.

They are "public" employees. They do not have the luxury of being politically biased.
