Is the issue of teachers' tenure a national or state policy?

Question

Basically, can the national government make a law concerning teachers' tenure? Or, only the state legislatures?

Answer 1

Niether, it's a buch of union bull shiot!

Answer 2

Basically a nontenured teacher is what in other professions would be called a probationary employee, they want to see if the teacher is competent enough to handle the job and they are given an unusually long probationary period sometimes as long as five years. A nontenured teacher is the lowest pay scale.

Gaining tenure is the equivalent of passing the bar for a lawyer, it gives them the right to teach in the district they gained the tenure in and the ability to rise in their field. It means they are no longer considered temporary workers. If they should move to another town, they would be in another district and would have to gain tenure again.

Since the tenure is negotiated by elected officials and can be renegotiated again by them the federal government is constitutionally prohibited from making any laws interfering with the local democracies.

Nowhere is tenure a guarantee of a lifetime job, that isn't what tenure is about.

Answer 3

Giving a person a lifetime guarantee in the workplace is the most foolish thing that the people have allowed.

It never should have happened and the Unions that brought it above should be ostracized.
