New York, NY – Stung by Albany’s decision to limit the disclosure of teacher evaluations, Mayor Bloomberg counterattacked today by announcing an extraordinary effort to call hundreds of thousands of parents to deliver the data directly.

“Let me tell you what we’re going to do,” Bloomberg declared on his weekly WOR radio show.
“We are going to have our schools call every single parent. We’re talking about fourth to eighth grade… We will tell you, you are entitled to this information and if you want it say yes right now and we will send it to you.”
We are also entitled to vote for term limits- Bloomberg you are a nutjob!!
This guy is an idiot. Take away all rights to discipline kids and then rate teachers based on students’ progress. Then give parents,many of who contribute no effort to educating their kids, a target to blame for their child’s shortfalls. Better yet, disrespectful kids like the ones on the infamous bus video will use the information to undermine their teachers.
Does anyone even still like this guy and think that he is doing a good job? I would be curious to know and would like to educate him/her on the “wonderful” job that our “daddy” is doing to protect all us “little people”.
Will someone please tell me what they think Bloomberg is doing wrong in this instance? What is wrong with the dissemination of information about your childrens’ teachers?
Oh yes, I’ve just remembered; all your children are in private tuition, not in the public school system. But I still don’t know why you are so against this move.
