Utah teachers are not bad, Sorensen said, responding to a press conference by Governor Mike Leavitt in which he called on school boards to fire teachers who arent doing their job. Look at our ACT (American College Testing) scores. For the 11th straight year, Utah high school seniors scored higher than their peers nationally on the college exams. Look at our graduation rates. They are higher than ever before. You dont get these results with bad teachers, Sorensen said. We have more problems with parents who dont do their Job in terms of helping their children with their education than with educators who arent doing their job. Sorensen said UEA, which represents 19,000 educators statewide, believes that it is important to have a quality teacher in every classroom. But, she added, teachers need all the support we can give them in terms of effective professional development and mentoring by master teachers. In many cases, the state hasnt seen fit to fund these crucial needs. Sorensen said the Utah Educator Evaluation Law, which had UEA support and was passed by the Legislature several years ago, provides school districts with a blueprint for dealing with teachers who are unable to fulfill the requirements of their job. That law allows school to identify, remediate andor terminate employees, Sorensen said. If administrators dont do their job including keeping good records, conducting evaluations and following district policy they will have a difficult time terminating an educator," the UEA president added. She said UEA becomes involved in these kinds oftermination cases to ensure that an educators rights are not violated includ- . 22 fs.e p::::3 to ugq FZZZ CAE2 tC:3TCn ADAPTCn mzz CRznn datycitv COMMNETCCELUJIAR.
