NEA - Statement by NEA President Dennis Van Roekel Regarding Release of MetLife Survey of The American Teacher

NEA - Statement by NEA President Dennis Van Roekel Regarding Release of MetLife Survey of The American Teacher: "- “The MetLife Survey of the American Teacher results are shocking, with teacher job satisfaction having dropped to the lowest level in more than 20 years. Some 29 percent of teachers—professionals of extraordinary talent and dedication—are thinking of leaving the profession they love due, in part, to the unconscionable cuts to the resources their students need.  In addition, more students are hungry and in need of extra support. This is not the way America should treat its students, the vast majority of whom attend public schools.  And it is especially outrageous to students in schools of greatest need."
