San Francisco’s heartless teachers’ union

San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera this week expanded his suit against the city’s school district and Board of Education for dillydallying in reopening schools, which apparently don’t care about the fact that children are killing themselves.

The educrats there are independent of mayoral control, but fully under the thumb of the local teachers’ union, which has offered impossible demands rather than let members do their jobs.

Herrera’s initial suit cited the record-high numbers of hospitalized suicidal children and those requiring emergency mental health care. Now he’s added charges of violating students’ rights to attend public school under the state Constitution, discriminating against students on the basis of wealth and violating state law by not offering in-person classes “to the greatest extent possible.”
