This is for every teacher who refuses to be blamed for the failure of our society to erase poverty and inequality, and refuses to accept assessments, tests and evaluations imposed by those who have contempt for real teaching and learning.

We have now gotten a US Made and Union shop to sell us BAT shirts in all designs at a low cost.
Bumper stickers are coming soon and we hope to add more shirt types (tank, polo) if there is interest in the t-shirts!
OK ... we had our meeting yesterday to ratify our 'new' contract. This is the 1st one in our school corporation since all of the bargaining rights were basically taken away by Mitch and Tony and their boys in the legislature. (We may have more BATS joining us now that it is even more 'real'.)
At any rate, one point that was made in the meeting is that although we can no longer have contract language about 'class size', there IS a law on the Indiana books that every student is to have a minimum of 30 square feet. I suspect some of you are already past that limit ...
