LAUSD has a 60% drop out rate.
LAUSD is owned by the unions, not the teachers, parents or students.
"The Los Angeles Times impending plan to publish the performance rankings of 6,000 elementary school teachers, based on student test scores, has become the catalyst for sudden negotiations between Los Angeles Unified and its teachers union over teacher evaluations. One likely reason: Incorporating test scores into teachers personnel reviews could provide the legal basis in the future to deny releasing the scores, tied to individual teachers, to the public and to the Times.
The Times reported Sunday that United Teachers Los Angeles has accepted Deputy Superintendent John Deasys offer to restart talks on performance reviews of teachers. UTLA President A.J. Duffy declined to say whether that should include using test scores, although Duffy, who has flatly ruled out the use of test scores until now, is facing pressure to do so."
What is to negotiate--this is PUBLIC information, being withheld by government. We have a right to know the great teachers and the lemons. No union has the right to destroy educational opportunities for students--yet, they do it anyway.
The information on teachers needs to be reported today, not based on "negotiations" with an organization that extorts teachers. Teachers have a choice--either pay bribes to the union or they are not allowed to teach. Government education is a monopoly based on corruption--it is time for the people to demand the end of corrupt unions owning our schools.
