Massachusetts RttT: AFT is OUT

I've just found out this morning that the executive board of the MA branch of the American Federation of Teachers has voted NOT to sign on to Round 2 of Race to the Top. They are asking their locals not to sign on for Round 2.
The Boston Teachers' Union is an AFT union.

No word from MTA.

  1. I hope MTA pulls out. Those of us who are against RTTT could certainly use some allies. RTTT does nothing to help students, teachers, or schools. It's taken too long for the unions to realize that if they care about free public education that they need to start fighting to retain it before it's gone.
