Speaker Madigan with some smart moves on better teachers

This Sun-Times report has Speaker Madigan calling for a limit to teacher tenure to four years.

Oh yes.

One half of our problem with schools is that we don't spend enough money in poor areas.

The other half is that we keep bad teachers on the payroll for what seems like ever.

Speaker Madigan calling for a cap on tenure of four years is a nice call. I hope it happens.
