Why is it so impossible to fire teachers?  I don't get it.  Teachers get canned here all the time for bad performance, budget cuts, etc.

They have also been very willing to forego pay raises and even receive pay cuts to ease the constant strain on the budget by rising insurance and fuel/transportation/food/maintenance costs.

The result has been class sizes that remain pretty low, teachers are relatively happy, and student achievement isn't hurt as a result.

I just get so tired of hearing about the evil teachers' unions in a few places... because it turns the public against all teachers' unions, most of which place the students and the teachers on the same pedestal.
