Don't rec this diary and don't give me any tips. Thousands of California teachers are receiving their "pink slips" by this Sunday, March 15 (California law requires school districts to inform teachers by this date if they do not have a guaranteed job for the next school year). There's a diary about this currently up and it's worth talking about; at least it's worth thinking about in the context of the President's very recent call to the youth of America to become teachers.
