School vouchers? No.
Teachers going to the highest bidder? Absolutely.
The “choose your teacher” item was a last-minute addition at the March 2 auction and was green-lit by Principal Shawn Garnett, according to emails obtained by The Oregonian/OregonLive under a public records request.
Six parents won the opportunity to choose their student’s next teacher, contributing a combined $1,300 to the fundraiser’s final tally, district spokesman Harry Esteve said.
In an email to Maxwell, Garnett said educators complained about the auction’s optics. They were concerned the “choose your teacher” stunt would contribute to inequity among students.
snip!
You think?
The left always shows their true colors when they are just winging it, unfiltered.
The optics of rich people bidding on a human, who is better than another human, so their rich kid can gain an advantage is not so good.
I think it’s in the left’s DNA.

Better than the teacher playing Spin the Bottle to pick which student to boink.
Is that post pic a depiction of a slave sale with a black dude checking out the goods?
Privileged minds need to know… 🙂
Kind of like buying your kids way into college isn’t it? Bad timing.
Fortunately, my kids are long since out of school.
If the Portland school system had been/was the unfortunate choice for my kids….I would have committed suicide.
This embarrassment could have been avoided if Portland Public Schools encouraged parents to select competitive Charter Schools. So what if scores doubled when budget cut in half?
Once again the Leftoids in Leftoid Land show us whut they really believe in!
Teaching kids early in their life, that money talks.
Hiring so many under qualified losers to teach is at the heart of this. Pay enough and your child can get a teacher that actually does the job.
The rest of the shlubs get some idiot that’ll teach them Obama anthems.

Pecking order…..the political class, the rich, then the rest us….deplorables, unwashed masses, and/or common people.
