CT News Junkie | OP-ED | Throwing Good Teachers Out With The Bath Water?

CT News Junkie | OP-ED | Throwing Good Teachers Out With The Bath Water?: "“One of the things I say to folks when they’re critical of any portion of [the bill] … I ask if they have a child,” Malloy said. “And then when they say that they do, I say, ‘Now tell me, when that child was in school was there ever a teacher in any one of the buildings your child attended that you wanted your child to avoid having?’”

He provided an example:

“Listen I had teachers growing up ... I had a teacher who was an alcoholic,” Malloy said. “You probably knew a teacher in one of the buildings you went to who was an alcoholic and as a result was not a very good teacher. And yet the person remained in the building for, you know, the rest of their career.”"
