"VAM IS A SHAM" |
So says Randi Weingarten, President of the American Federation of Teachers.
The sounds of silence...
...that would be Dennis Van Roekel, President of the National Education Association.
Of course, Dennis has an excuse...
...since he is too busy traveling around the country trumpeting the wonderfulness of the Common Core State Standards.

Breaking News: Weingarten Rejects VAM!
CAT Tracks Editor's Note:
Before posting my catty comment about "Dennis the Menace", I decided that maybe I had better do some research. I mean, I knew where Dennis stood on CCSS, but was just guessing on VAM. I didn't want to make one of those ass-u-me mistakes and have to offer a retraction and apology.
Once again, a special thank you to former Vice President Al Gore for "inventing" the Internet which made Google possible. When I entered "Dennis Van Roekel and VAM" here is what popped up...
From the Huffington Post
NEA, AFT, Common Core, and VAM
As good ol' Mr. Wilson would say:
"DENNNNNIS!!!"
