Honest question: how many public school districts don't have a Teachers Union? My understanding is that it's close to none, and private and charter schools are the only ones without unions. A quick google search isn't returning a conclusive answer though.
- verall 3y agoIn some southern states, the "Teachers Unions" are forbidden from collective bargaining by law, and are also optional, so they literally do nothing. On average, these states have worse pay for teachers and worse student test scores.
- bamfly 3y agoSome whole states have (due to state laws) very weak teacher's unions that can barely do anything to protect teachers when they should be protected, and that hardly have any say in anything. I think if it were at all possible to spin those states as having better educational outcomes, Republicans would be crowing about it on Fox News 24/7.

- kelseyfrog 3y agoThe 16th largest school district in CA is non-union[1]. They certainly exist even in famously "blue states". 1. https://www.zocalopublicsquare.org/2016/04/07/whats-a-school-district-like-without-a-teachers-union/ideas/connecting-california/ https://www.zocalopublicsquare.org/2016/04/07/whats-a-school...
