Maybe this gives us a clue.
Teachers’ unions are the sworn enemy of kids learning in school.
They are only interested in teacher pay raises, shorter hours and ever-expanding membership.
And when a state can’t find enough qualified teachers to make the unions happy, they do what they always do — lower the standards.
New Jersey teachers will no longer be required to pass a basic skills test to become a teacher.
The New Jersey Education Association was the driving force behind the bill.

I’m sure that even if they cannot read or write or do math, they are completely competent to teach Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, anti-racist theology, climate change orthodoxy and all the rest of the mandatory woke curriculum.
It’s the kids who suffer.
