I have supported the head in this, publicly, and notwithstanding efforts by my kids' teachers to get parents to put signs in their yards supporting the unions. So if anyone (hi Penske!) is laboring under the misapprehension that I support teachers unions, there you go.
But blaming the teachers unions for the state of the schools is a fool's errand. They're just profit-maximizing, like any firm would. They have every right to call for the return of a school board, however misguided that is.
