Teachers’ Rights

Lately, we read and observe more that is being done with teachers in mind - instead, we find ourselves expecting more and more of teachers.  And, like a frog in a pot, it is reaching the boiling point - there is very little energy left for the teachers - at least those I have spoken with in the past few years.  Many teachers I meet after they’ve left and they have no issues telling me the reasons.  

This week, we discuss what we find from the Washington Post’s OpEd piece on Teachers’ Rights, and then the two studies she uses as a basis for that article.  

Here are the links to the articles: 

Washington Post - The Basic Rights Teachers Don’t Have

Weishart’s The Right to Teach
