I don’t know what the answer is but I do know that protecting incompetent teachers screws our kids.

The problem you run into right after firing them, however, is replacing them.

There is the conundrum. Good teachers are rare. Teaching in a public school is a shitty job, in terms of pay and respect, and often, working conditions. As a teacher everybody is your boss. In many places the promise of job security is all the public school system has to offer prospective teachers.
