I was promised a stepped payment plan that has been frozen a total of 10 years. Thus reducing my pension by 10,000 dollars. I was promised full health insurance. Our deductibles keep increasing and our benefits are decreasing. How can teachers trust a State that breaches their side of the contract while expecting us to do more with less. If there are any lawyers out there ready to take this on....count me as #1 in line.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-74048498654482399152014-06-05T21:52:00.613-04:002014-06-05T21:52:00.613-04:008:26

They are basically saying if teachers want enough money to live they have to give up the thing that protects them from unfair treatment. There us no reason to tie raises or the jobs of teacher assistants to pay raises in an effort to bully teachers into giving up their due process rights.

You should not be paid merely for staying around. That is a fairly antiquated system. I used to work for the state and managed to get longevity pay for a few years before I left. I didn't like it then and don't like it now. bobcat99https://www.blogger.com/profile/18142256800210851185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-9469509200914552392014-06-05T17:46:23.391-04:002014-06-05T17:46:23.391-04:00This state has gone mad...

I can't understand why reasonably intelligent people can't make a pay plan. I like my kids school. I like the teachers and the principal. The teacher I wanted for my kid next year is leaving. Not to New York or California. To South Carolina!!!! South Carolina!!! Are you kidding me? I know some schools are bad.

I'd like to hear from Senator Tarte publicly on this issue. Is there anyone that will stand up to this guy and for their constituents?<br /><br />If the two plans, which I don't like are our only option; I'd go for the Governor's. At least that plan doesn't raise teacher's salaries at the expense of our children's already meager services.<br /><br />I am also watching our local BOCC. <br /><br />I was glad the County Manager gave CMS what she did and paid attention to other COUNTY PROVIDED services. I don't want to see the County pick up the tab for what the State should be doing. Once that door is opened, we won't be able to close it go back.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
