I'm having trouble understanding how this doesn't reflect negatively on the teacher's union. It's the union's own contract that maintains this dysfunctional seniority system. If the District is not able to retain teachers based on competence or skill set, then how is their solution of assigning teachers based on certification unreasonable? How else are they to assess competence...testing? Is the testing of teachers with seniority allowed under the current contract? What are the other options?
