Teachers unions want parents to forget what happened during COVID. Don t let them.
Randi Weingarten, the president of the American Federation of Teachers, has kicked off the What Kids and Communities Need campaign.
It s total gaslighting.
What kids and communities need is simple: They need reliable schools where teachers show up and do their job. Yet, that s not has what happened in far too many cases in the past two years.
There s a reason why 1.5 million students left their public schools in the 2020-21 school year parents weren t happy with extended closures and the uncertainty that came with it. So they chose private schools that stayed open, or they home-schooled.
Never mind those facts. Weingarten is now trying to rewrite history to absolve the union of responsibility for what it did to children and families during the pandemic.
