What are the "jobs" that Ms. Jones is referring to? At schools where students are failing miserably and have been for years and years, where less than half of students are proficient, clearly everyone there is not a hard-working, professional educator and adminstrator. I don't care if overpaid babysitters and behavior managers lose their jobs. They should have lost them long ago. And besides, we already know that most of these teachers are tenured and will NEVER lose their jobs. Union rules will allow them to be forced on other schools and likely continue the cycle of poor performance. Using this uniformed opinion, Maria Jones is obviously just trying to make the situation about jobs and not about educating children, a it always is with those trying to preserve the same, sad status quo.
