There is a saying in Tx education:

>as Tx goes, so goes the nation

And so [they] corrupted Tx schools

TEA is a teacher union is disguise, who protects child predators, and makes it nearly impossible to fire a teacher in the state of Tx.

Example: anon personally knows an elementary teacher whom consistently has a 40% passing rate.

Same class the year before: 90%

passing.

Same class the year after: 90% passing.

Yet, she's been in the classroom for over 20 yrs. Why? Because TEA has made it nearly impossible to get rid of her. The only teachers, whom anon has ever known, to be fired in Tx were those caught in the act of grooming, or sexual contact, with student; and I mean caught in the act. Complaints by parents are not good enough - they weren't fired until caught in the act.

Anon hopes this passes.
