"Negligent" Teacher Retention

Laura Waters:

The Star-Ledger discusses NJ's "landmark" tenure reform bill passed earlier this year which "enjoyed near-universal support," but notes that "there is also a consensus among leading Democrats and Republicans that it doesn't go far enough for inner-city schools."

Tough luck. From The Ledger: "Interviews with administration officials, Democratic lawmakers and NJEA leaders reveal that whatever momentum there was for education reform has mostly fizzled. Instead, they're back to bickering over how much teachers should earn and which ones should be laid off first when budgets are tight. And nobody's budging."
