Here is a letter that I sent to the WSJ in response to the article found at http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704071704576276673922731938.html
In her article, Ms Weingarten decries the use of market based solutions in education. What Ms Weingarten fails to understand that there is a de-facto market system in place already in that parents are choosing education alternatives that run the gamut from charter schools, private or parochial schools or simply moving to a location with better schools.
Ms Weingarten is already in the middle of a market based solutions and her refusal to embrace fundamental change such as pay for performance, and elimination of tenure with cause and increase in the flight of parents to alternative education choices.
