Re: 100 R.I. teachers fired. LMAO
Around here in northern CA many of the private schools follow the public school salary schedule, until they hit a ceiling they can't go above unless they are willing to charge more than they want to.
I might say to BOTE, not that I want to engage BOTE in conversation... but teaching is a profession not just a job. You should be comparing them to other masters degree professions, of which they are probably more poorly paid than any.
Not that I would defend the teachers in this case, as I think they could have done more to help considering the low income community they work in. But they didn't necessarily get good advice from their union.
But to laugh your ass off at teachers being fired is stupid. Not to mention having a full new teaching staff would most likely hurt the students and school. Teachers can't fix everything wrong in a community. But they can be blamed for it.
