There are a lot of reasons why Florida, like all states, have a teacher shortage. But the Florida Education Association is suggesting teachers are leaving because of things like the Parental Rights in Education law and tightening down on sketchy curriculum. If any teachers are leaving for those reasons, I want them gone, but Florida's Commissioner of Education, Manny Diaz, explains what the real lay of the land is in the Sunshine State.
Do teachers know they don't have to be a member of a union where overpriced dues are used to engage in nonstop political activism? Do they know about the Professional Educators Networkf of Florida?
