The weaponization of public schools as indoctrination camps for the teacher's unions is unacceptable. It is one thing to advocate for the teaching profession itself and quite another to engage in political hate rhetoric against half the voting population of America.
It is also high time to apply the demand for gender equality and equity to the teaching profession at all educational levels. Children deserve and need strong, smart male role models teaching side by side with women. Time to walk the walk.
This is an unofficial and oftentimes humorous look at my former Region19 Board of Education experience. I will try to stimulate interest and discussion along the way. This is a sandbox of ideas that we'll explore together so feel free to comment.

Hartford Public Schools and Money
I found this site to be fascinating.
"It’s a “loan.” No, it’s a “reallocation.” No, it’s a “reimbursement.”
The first two are illegal so the third was concocted (and needs an audit) to justify the city of Hartford allowing Hartford Schools Superintendent Torres-Rodrigeuz to pillage the Other Post-Employment Benefits trust fund (OPEB), a trust fund set up to provide benefits beyond pensions to employees of Hartford Public Schools, not a trust fund to bailout the financial malfeasance of a not-ready-for-prime-time superintendent."
