Thanks to NJEdReport for augmenting and amplifying Sunlight’s research on how the NEA (and NJEA) knew about young teachers’ disaffection from the modern-day, union-dominated teaching profession.  The young teachers cared about students and instruction, and wanted less politics and less seniority.  The NJEA and NEA gave them more politics and more seniority.  No wonder there’s a…Read More

Thanks once again to NJEdReport for amplifying Sunlight’s voice.  NJ needs to learn how the NJEA is pushing teachers to take sides against parents who dare to speak up at school board meetings.  The facts show that it is the NJEA that is injecting politics into our schools.Read More

Thanks to Chalkboard Review for covering our two reports.  We’re glad to see a news outlet that’s willing to publish the FACTS about how the NJEA believes that “Teaching is political” and how it is pushing teachers to become local political activists.  Too bad New Jersey’s news media cannot bring themselves to report on these facts.Read More

Thanks once again to NJEdReport for augmenting and amplifying Sunlight’s work.  They provide and excellent take on the facts we present.Read More

Thanks to NJEdReport for adding its take on Sunlight’s research.  We want to note again that Sunlight is using the NJEA’s and the Radical Pedagogy Institutes own words to describe what they are doing.  We were shocked at what we found.Read More

As always, NJEdReport adds its own take on the big news that former-ADP CEO Josh Weston, one of New Jersey’s most famous and successful businessmen, finds the NJEA leadership’s lavish compensation to be “outrageous.”   He thinks Gov. Murphy should claw some back, which Murphy will never do because he is very cozy with the…Read More

If you’re not feeling bombarded on the issue, please read NJEdReport’s take on the Star-Ledger‘s editorial on NJEA Executive Director Ed Richardson making $2.5 million in 2019.  NJEdReport’s perspective is always worth considering.Read More

Once again, thanks to NJEdReport for amplifying Sunlight’s research.  Of course, to New Jersey’s establishment media, the fact that NJEA Executive Director Ed Richardson was paid $2.5 million in 2019 isn’t news.  It’s OK for New Jersey teachers, whose average salary was $76,000 in 2019, to have their highest-in-the-nation dues make Richardson a multi-millionaire.  And…Read More

Thank goodness that unlike some other media outlets in New Jersey nj.com  is willing to publish opinions that challenge New Jersey’s public school status quo.  In response to a teacher shortage, Sunlight asks whether New Jersey’s public school system represents an appealing job opportunity for today’s young college grads.  They value mobility and flexibility, but our…Read More

Thanks to NJEdReport augmenting and amplifying Sunlight’s latest research on New Jersey’s teacher shortage.  NJEdReport ties in other elements – such as New Jersey Policy Perspective’s Mark Weber’s pro-NJEA prescriptions and its own work on the subject – to provide an even broader view of the subject.  It’s always worth reading NJEdReport’s take on things.Read More
