Simple we just don't take a piece of the action and pass the savings on to members. It is a service not a revenue source.

I got lots of people to sign the petition. Guess what? I don't see a single budge from any of the powers that be to repeal the evaluation system and return us to S/U. The only person who has openly supported repealing it is Cytnthia Nixon. Since I don't live in New York, I can't even vote for her. After 20 plus years as a teacher, I am on my last hope. I am not sure what the hell I am going to do. I just want to teach in peace with no fear for the next 8 years so I can retire and collect my pension. Do you honestly think we can get 2 observations? Do you honestly think that the legislature will try to push for a repeal of the eval system if they get the votes in November? I mean what do you really think the possibilities are? We have been getting jerked around with this evaluation nightmare for 7 years now. I still see no light at the end of the tunnel. The current tweak to the evaluation bill is bullshit and does nothing for us. Is this the best that the democrats and the NYSUT/UFT can do for us? I am loosing hope pretty fast here.
