About the teachers who are striking back. I agree with them. They need to make a stand for teachers immediately. Teachers are supposed to be facilitators not what they state of TX has created them to be: teachers of the TAKS test. This is NOT education at all. We need to look back when teachers were given permission to teach and make it a joy to learn. This not in the schools of America today. My daughter will be attending a charter school were they will be using a constructionist teaching theory where the classroom goes back to student guided and teacher facilitated. That's what school is for, an education not to be tested for exemplary status. Teachers need to take a united front and it starts with the teachers you have featured on your show this morning. My hats off to this news station for airing this information and I pray that more hop on that bandwagon soon so we can better educate the children who are the adults and future of this great United States of America. Let freedom ring!!!!!
