Tell Me Why, You Lousy Shitbags from WCSD,

a teacher's career should be in the hands of ONE person, typically a person who was a lousy teacher or a worse human being, and who can destroy his or her career? Why should the process of being "post-probationary," which, by the way, is TWO years, not one, in Nevada, be lengthened so that more people's lives can be ruined?

The guy proposing these changes is from Carson City, evidently, and has no understanding of school district politics, but you can expect the district to go along with whatever proposal is being planned by the state.

I wrote in the comments:

Yeah, let's make it easier for your lousy principals to destroy teachers' careers, especially those of who are over 50. Meanwhile, rig the hearings so that these principals are kept no matter what.

Why should someone's livelihood, for which they have spent years and tens of thousands of dollars preparing for, be in the hands of one idiot who was most likely a failed teacher himself or herself?


And this:

And "gross misconduct"? What a joke. The state administrative law isn't worth the paper it is written on. Principals can merely fabricate a "case" against a teacher or be forced by human resources to destroy a teacher on the most flimsy of allegations, knowing full well the district will rig these phony hearings. Their witnesses will lie, and union "executive directors" will take bribes in the form of jobs working for school districts so as not to be able to help the affected teacher. I know this from personal experience. The district is confident they will "win" because a teacher cannot afford to appeal these phony decisions.

Nevada needs to do what Oregon does, and that is REMOVE the hearing process from a school district administrative office to the state capital and have a PANEL of people instead of one on-on-take "arbitrator" who more often than not violates state administrative law. Make it REAL due process and not these rigged kangaroo courts that current exist.


I don't expect a response.
