Michigan Tea Partiers want to scrap teaching standards because pretty much anyone can teach scripture
Tea Party conservative lawmakers in Michigan are looking to eliminate hiring standards for public school teachers and a Facebook post may reveal their motivation.
State Rep. Gary Glenn (R-Larkin Township) introduced legislation Wednesday that literally strikes out all current criteria for hiring qualified teachers and allows school board members to hire anyone whose education and experience they believe would benefit students, reported Eclectablog.
House Bill 4394 would also promote the operation of cyber schools taught by anyone school boards wish to hire and that would be exempt from state requirements on student attendance.
Another conservative lawmaker, state Rep. Todd Courser, posted a Facebook rant earlier this week against top down soviet style education standards.
