Posted on: Teacher pay cut might not sting recruitment

How is it that we as a nation a state a society, can devalue one of our most valuable commodities. Our children's teachers shape our childrens lives. So how can you expect quality from someone who is being held hostage. You can cut their pay because they can't sell their house so they can't leave the state to find a better paying job?
You have no idea what kind of stress our teachers are under. (I had to buy paper for my son's class so his teacher could send home homework and most teachers do spend their own money on things for their class.) All the budget cuts, parents who complain, administrators breathing down their necks for higher test scores, expecting more for less. It is not something I would want. How betrayed would you feel by all the parents by society?
PARENTS, these people who spend more time during the week with our kids than we do, deserve more from us. Please think.
