My teacher just got a pink slip :(

Mrs. Clark, my English and history teacher, just got a pink slip  sad
A pink slip is a firing notice, and the chances are bad that she gets to come back next year. I made a project about it here  sad

Did you like her and why is she being fired?

Ya, she was an awesome teacher, and she is being fired because she is fairly new and the union has some stupid rule where the newest teachers get fired even if they teach better than the older teachers.

Re: My teacher just got a pink slip :(

I think the rule is that younger teachers have to be better at teaching in order to stay compared to the older teachers.

That's called tenure, and that's why the educational system is a complete failure in America. It's the only job where you get guaranteed security after like 5 years, meaning that teachers can basically stop trying and there is no competition. These people also happen to be the people that we all pay taxes too. Then they all complain that they aren't getting paid enough, so it's kind of like an evil cycle of death. haha  big_smile

Wow, no offense, but your school has a dumb system. They shouldn't fire a teacher just because the teacher is new and better!
