The governor has announced using $192 million of the stimulus funds for education to balance the budget. It would seem on the surface that this is not legal. Not ethical. Not even would it pass the common sense test.
The money should be welcomed as a solution for addressing the budget deficit in education. But it seems that the governor is consistently punishing the education community for nonsupport during her campaigns. Teachers as well as the DOE administration are the targets.
Consistent under funding, constant criticism and violating teachers’ civil rights are the legacy of this governor. Greeting a private school team at the airport is commendable but not doing the same for the public school teams is wrong. I hope teachers now realize their error in supporting the governor. Every governor or candidate for governor has wanted to be the education governor. This is the education governor, the governor that has done all she can to damage the public education system.
