My Thoughts on Tenure

I think that tenure can be both a good and bad thing. Good teachers deserve every right to have tenure. We want those teachers for a long time. Before tenure is offered, there should be a teacher evaluation from the students. This is where students honestly share what they think about their teachers. There should also be days where principals and/or superintendents go into a classroom and see how the teacher is teaching. These days should be completely unexpected. Teachers seem to actually teach well when they know they are going to be evaluated. Having tenure is a privilege and bad teachers don't deserve it at all.
