Wednesday Governor Snyder said he wants to be a man of vision and turn Michigan’s economy around. In fact he wants to scare us by threatening to take away our certifications if we even mention doing something which he deems subversive and against his plan. In other words, this is my plan, if you don’t like it you can shut up.
His plan is heavy on consequences, short on cash and will be radically ineffective with its emphasis on expanding for-profit charter schools.
Threatening teachers with their careers so they will shut up and not oppose what they believe is wrong is neither collaborative nor in the American tradition. Taking how you feel about all of this into consideration, ask yourself this: How is threatening the careers of 155,000 people doing anything to move our state forward or help our students?
