Senators need to hear from you.
This bill is in committee TOMORROW, 2/28/2022!
At first glance, this bill seems innocuous — even good, but a deeper look reveals this entire line of code should be struck, not amended.
Let’s take a look at what is happening through the ammendments to this this line of code:
- It puts people in classrooms without appropriate training or credentials. (Hmmm… Didn’t Cox recently issue an EO for something like that?)
- See line 49, ““Teacher” means an educator who has an assignment to teach in a classroom.”
- Do not let the bill sponsor confuse you. This means someone without training and credentials and (see lines 67-69).
- See line 49, ““Teacher” means an educator who has an assignment to teach in a classroom.”
- Putting unlicensed/untrained individuals in classrooms will not increase student learning.
- It will create more chaos in an already tenuous environment.
- It will create a homogenous educational unit (of like-minded thinkers) committed to collectivism and refuting merit.
