It is impossible to define an "effective" teacher when it is up to the students to learn.

Why should he give districts money when there are strings attached? This asshole wants to turn all schools into online schools using HIS software.

That's where public education is headed in this country, and it is a disaster. The privatization shit MUST be stopped or we will have no country left.
