I believe that the US needs an advocacy group like Students First. After watching this video I agree with what Michelle Rhee is saying, when she speaks about teacher's unions and their firing policies regarding age. I agree that it is unfair to fire teachers based on seniority and not based on their skill. By doing this the school system is firing some highly effective teachers and leaving less effective teachers, who may have been in the school for years but have not been doing a very effective job. I also like what she says about giving highly effective teachers recognition for the good job that they are doing. To ensure that we are meeting the needs of the students.
