A teacher is assigned who meets with you about once a month to see your childs work.

They also provide all of the reading books according to your childs level.

However I feel it is time that all the teachers in the state stop beating on the chest of the tax payers demanding more money. Live within your means and have some pride in your work. It seems that every year I hear that teachers are going to walk off the job if the state or their districts doesn’t give them what they want.

The medical profession was a profession that at one time people entered into for the public good, not money. Is a doctor worth the money you pay them. If you can do a better job, feel free to quit your Job, and teach your kids at home for free, then tell me teacher's don't earn every penny.

For 2009-2010 school year, California will rank 50th in per pupil spending, almost $2400 below the national average. That is the issue.

I readily and regularly e-mail Dems and Republicans, but in this case I called Republicans on their comments.
