State says only 27% of Baltimore County teachers are vaccinated; Olszewski questions their math

Baltimore County Executive Johnny Olszewski said Wednesday their numbers are way off, but the County Executive said that number is just flat out wrong.  He said that based on county data and surveys conducted by the Teachers Association of Baltimore County and Education Support Professionals of Baltimore County, 63% of educators have been vaccinated.

KISD hourly employees address lack of rights

Five individuals spoke Tuesday evening to the Killeen Independent School District board of trustees about the lack of due process rights for district educational support professionals. Killeen Educators Association president Rick Beaulé spoke during public forum citing the names of 10 Texas school districts, including Austin ISD and Fort Worth ISD, that already have adopted due process rights for their lowest-paid employees. “The law of the land in these districts gives these Education Support Professionals, or ESP’s, a guaranteed review of disciplinary issues prior to dismissal, rather than the fear of being terminated for little or no reason,” Beaulé said.
