[QUOTE="Okie4570, post: 3927116, member: 15643"] I think just the opposite will happen. OEA is ruffled because now it's not necessary for educators to go through a university indoctrination system prior to appearing in a classroom........just my thoughts. I'm all for retired or folks with expertise in particular subjects entering the classroom at the HS and middle school levels. Elementary on the other hand, I'm not sure how anyone couple prepare or learn how to tolerate those booger eaters all day everyday lol. I know students who've had some HS math teachers who'd been teaching for 20y who couldn't explain why 1 comes before 2 and they were "teaching" Geometry and Trig. In the end, I don't think this will be a bad thing. Many teachers in general cheapened themselves out of a job. They want CEO pay, dress in sweats and yoga pants everyday, complain about no respect and continue to push the limits of what is acceptable and not acceptable in the classroom. I know a guy who lost his job last year who was an oil field guy. He is big into travel team youth basketball and a 6A school was looking for an assit coach. He took the job while still doing some part time stuff to help pay the bills. Right before school started a physical science teaching position opened up and wasn't being filled, they asked him if interested and he took it. He's been having the time of his life, and feels like he may have missed his calling years ago. [/QUOTE]
