Guess Who Wants Public Schools to Hide Their Curriculum?
When Nicole Solas asked to see what her child would learn in Kindergarten, she was sued by the teachers union. It makes you wonder why they want to hide this kind of information from parents.
What Will Dems Do Now That a Teachers Union Opposes Mandatory Vaccination?
Almost any plea for requiring vaccination can be followed to some Left-Wing source so this is a problem. A New Hampshire Teachers Union representing 17,000 “educators” has come out against mandatory vaccination for staff or students.
So the union cries crocy tears for badly paid teachers. Union workers? MUCH better
Dues were $7 million, salaries for 38 employees was $5 million – an average of $130K each. From the NEA, we know what NEA affiliated NH teachers earn on average:
