Bad teachers hard to fire
by SamCogar on Sun Jun 29, 2008 4:27 pm
MIDDLE ISLAND, N.Y. - Few people know better than school superintendent Allan Gerstenlauer that disciplining a tenured teacher can be a long and expensive process.
An English teacher in his Long Island district remains on the payroll, earning an annual salary of $113,559, even after pleading guilty earlier this month to drunken driving charges — her fifth DWI arrest in seven years.
The teacher will remain on paid leave at least until a disciplinary hearing in August, and it will be up to an impartial arbitrator to decide whether she needs to be fired as she faces a likely prison sentence.

Geeeze, I wonder how many WV English Teachers will be flocking to Middle Island, NY to vie for that Substitute teaching job if that teacher is sent to prison?

That's what you get with teacher tenure.
