In California teachers have to get advance notice of a pending lay off for the following year...

An article in the paper a couple day's ago stated that some 19,000 teachers in the state to get a lay off notice... could be higher because a few County's hadn't stated their intent before the article went out...

But [bleep] they keep on building 50,000,000+ dollar high schools!

Ahh..the pendulum swings. In ten years, or so, the country will be begging for teachers and willing to pay unbelievable money. It's just another symptom relieved by the drug-of-the-day, without addressing the cause.

Oh no, just think of the class size - way over union limits!

Last couple budget years teachers have been laid off all over Southern Calif., my city has given notice to some 300... But all but 60 or 70 were eventually kept... So far!

So how much do you think teacher's should be paid? I have read the dicussions and seen a lot of general vague comments that suggest they are overpaid, but what are they really worth? What is fair compared to other vocations?

Barring those that just think teaching should be abolished or minimalize, which I shudder to think people believe that a lack of education is a good thing, what is a fair wage?

The "conservative sheeple" are no different than the "liberal sheeple". They will jump on whatever band wagon is popular at the moment. In their minds, all government employees should be "servants" performing a duty as a favor to the taxpayers and the flag, and thankful for the crumbs they are fed.

Exactly.

Party loyalists are the bane of the republic, and will likely be the death of it.

Class size was just a another ruse to get more union teacher jobs, here in CA the average teacher pay is nearly the highest in the nation yet LA county's has 70% drop outs!

If class size matters why did the drop out rate go up? Why are we over paying teachers to fail, if you had results this dismal in the private sector you would be out the door in a second!

Less qualified teachers will fix that for sure.

Dear CA, here is a suggestion, how about every student you are planning to enroll has to prove citizenship before they walk in the door.... you might find that you don't need to employ as many school teachers...

Maybe it's just the bi-lingual teachers they are letting go.

Not really, but conservatives aren't afraid to question the status quo, even when it has to do with the almighty labor union.

As I recall, California has $800 million in unfunded pension liabilities for these "public servants".

Maybe that $800 million would be a much smaller number if public employees weren't retiring in their 40's with pensions equalling their salaries, and full health benefits.

Maybe they wouldn't need to send out all those pink slips. Did you ever think about that?

They are as much "servants" as the NFL players are "slaves"
