Seniority-based teacher layoffs: Dayton won't sign GOP bill - TwinCities.com: "Dayton said he shares the bill supporters' goal of putting the best teachers in the classroom. But the bill is premature and among a raft of bills being pushed by Republican lawmakers that are "anti-public education and anti-teacher." And that has teachers demoralized, he said.
"They feel like they're doing their best, but they get little credit or recognition," Dayton said.
The measure, which would end the practice of laying off teachers based on seniority rather than performance, has passed the Republican-led House and Senate. A conference committee that was expected to seek a compromise in the bills Thursday afternoon was canceled."
