Via Diane Ravitch, we learn that the NYSUT has taken half a million dollars from the Gates Foundation "to support a consortium of districts in New York and Rhode Island to work with labor-management teams to design and pilot more differentiated teacher development and evaluation systems."
The next time your hear Dick Iannuzzi or some NYSUT spokesperson talk about how they're trying to protect teachers from the unfair implementation of the Common Core or APPR or some other ravage of education reform, remember the education reform foundations they take money from.
Remember who's paying them.
Same goes for Randi Weingarten and the AFT.
The fix is in.
