I know it is easier said then done, but I am just shocked that this has not happened yet.Pete Zuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16708676684946013529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2586988941850907367.post-79797535701709764582010-01-27T07:46:57.956-05:002010-01-27T07:46:57.956-05:00I have yet to see Klein follow any of the Educatio...I have yet to see Klein follow any of the Education Laws. He has skirted, ignored, changed or broken them. Why would this time be any different? There are no repercussions for Klein when he breaks or ignores education laws!<br /><br />I was on the school governance committee and I stated that a penalty section must be in the school governance law if Klein does not follow the law. If I'm not mistaken, it's in there. But who will hold the mayor and Klein accountable to follow it or punish them. They must be in the witness protection program<br /><br />All these hearings were all a SHAM!!! I went to them and I knew exactly what the outcome would be CLOSE THE SCHOOLS!<br /><br />When they closed the first 10 high schools in 2000-2002, the union should have fought then, should have come up with a plan, should have had endorsed politicians that would be on the side of the community, and should NOT have allowed mayoral control.<br /><br />Now look at this mess. Twenty schools will close; the communities will be in disarray. Student deflection will be everywhere. Schools will cheat profusely so they can get a B or higher out of fear that they'll be axed! The mayor will get the notoriety of his shameless act - under his control schools work.<br /><br />I am not a union leader; I am not a genius. But, I knew that this was going to happen.<br /><br />NOW WHAT! More rallies??? More protests??? More hearings??? It didn't work. All the public did was spin their wheels and lose alot of tread.<br /><br />We now need to be aggressive! It's time to come up with some boycotts, not strikes, but some solid boycotts. Any ideas?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
