A Special Education Teacher at an LAUSD MAGNET WHO BLOGS AS TRIESTOBEFAIR WRITES:
If students' progress was a concern for the billionaires and right wing zealots who fund Kate Anderson, they would not be privatizing education for profit. They would have been spending their money on reducing class size and investing in early childhood education and NOT wasting money on Standardized Tests which are used to segregate communities, confiscate public schools and its properties and blaming teachers for the poverty- hurting kids and their academic progress. Steve Zimmer supports charter schools, but he wants to hold them accountable to the way they use public money and public properties, to their students' academic progress, and to federal education laws. We do not need opportunists like Kate Anderson and we don't need billionaires to tell us how to run our schools and educate our children. Feb 24, 2013 :: Billionaire Bloomberg, Mayor of New York City sent 1,000,000 Dollars to take out Steve Zimmer, a Los Angeles Unified School District Board Of Education member. Opponent, Ms Andereson, a corporate lawyer, now places TV commercials to which Zimmer can't respond because his campaign does not have the money to do so. When a school board candidate place commercials on MSNBC, someone has to pay for it and it shouldn't be the kids of Los Angeles Unified School District. LAUSD elections is non of Bloomberg's business.
Here is Zimmer's response to Bloomberg's attack.
