the Problem of Tenure

http://articles.latimes.com/2009/dec/20/local/la-me-teacher-tenure20-2009dec20?pg=7

I really think tenure in education is ridiculous. I think it would be better to raise the salaries of teachers and the expectations, as well. Teachers should never be immune to firing, because even a fifteen-years-in-a-row star teacher can fail. I wouldn't want to be allowed to stay if I'm not giving the students the best opportunities to learn and grow. Put the students first, make them your life, or you deserve to be dismissed.
