February ,  Students Come First!

When I was 16 and a junior at Sandpoint High School, I was interested in a certain cute redhead who invited me to her place for dinner one evening. Her father immediately began asking me questions, obviously concerned to learn more about this unimpressive farm kid his daughter had been dating. “What are you going to do when you grow up?” he asked rather directly. “I’m going to be a teacher!” I announced proudly, expecting him to be immediately impressed. His response jarred me. “Okay. But what are you going to do for a living?”

Until that moment it had not occurred to me to consider how much teachers make. Two of my favorite teachers had a profound impact on my life. I loved and respected them. They were my heroes. I wanted to be like them. But discovering how much teachers made in 1965, I decided on a different career.

Teachers make considerably more today than they did in 1965. But in my opinion, it’s not nearly enough to attract and keep the best and brightest teachers. Besides, the Union has taken away all incentives for teachers to excel, leading many teachers to become disillusioned in their job, greatly damaging teacher effectiveness and classroom morale.

Legislation called “Students Come First” is being introduced that would greatly enhance the quality of our students’ education, provide exceptional learning tools in the classroom, and substantially increase the amount of money a teacher will make each year. Had these enhancements been in place 48 years ago, I believe I would have become a teacher.

Teachers should be ecstatic about the proposal. Tenure will be “grandfathered” for all teachers who currently have tenure. Alternative sources of liability insurance will save teachers hundreds of dollars per year. Every teacher will receive an immediate pay increase and the ability to earn up to an additional $8,000 per year in merit bonuses. The classroom will EHFRPHIXQDJDLQ³IRUWKHWHDFKHUDQGWKHVWXGHQW7KHFXUUHQW8QLRQPRWWRRI´6RPHNLGVMXVWFDQ·WOHDUQµZLOOEHUHSODFHGZLWKDQHZPDQWUDRI´:HZLOOÀQGDZD\WRKHOSHYHU\ child!” Teachers will know that their own success is now tied to the success of the children in their classroom. Children will notice an immediate change in teacher attitudes. Fewer teachers will begin class by saying “You will spend today’s class reading your textbook assignment.” More teachers will begin class by saying “We’ve got some very interesting and fun things I want to teach you today.”

Teacher income will increase immediately. Idaho will attract and keep the best and brightest teachers. And both teachers and students will prosper! But only if we pass “Students Come First.”

Something must be done to give school boards the ability to get rid of bad teachers. Since Idaho first adopted collective bargaining for teachers in 1971,the Idaho Education Association has had a chance to suggest a better alternative to the pay- for-performance plan that Luna has proposed.So far, it hasn’t. And here’s what we don’t like: We’re unconvinced that Luna’s idea of marginally increase class sizes — by eliminating 770 teacher jobs statewide — won’t result in much bigger classes in some Idaho school districts.And the superidentents suggestion that districts which don’t want larger classes can cut teachers’and administrators’pay in- stead is disingenuous.

AS WE APPROACH THE HALFWAY POINT OF PRESIDENT OBAMA’S FIRST TERM, the list of accomplishments already dwarfs that of many of his predecessors. h e actions taken by this administration and by Democrats in Congress have eased the burden on middle-class families, making it easier for working parents to meet their families’ daily needs while opening doors of opportunity for their children. Together, these accomplish- ments form a foundation for a new generation of prosperity, a new era of possibility, and a new century of American greatness.
