California Teachers Association Promises to Keep Standing with Students; Ready to Take on Challenges of Unqualified DeVos |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 02/07/2017 06:31 PM
|
Los Angeles, CA...The following statement is from CTA President Eric Heins on behalf of more than 325,000 educators and students: “The confirmation of Betsy DeVos as U.S. Education Secretary is yet another blow to our nation, most pointedly at the millions of students who come to our public schools each and every day. The administration could not have picked someone less qualified than DeVos—a billionaire businesswoman who knows nothing about what goes on in our public schools. All she sees are dollar signs, not students from all walks of life, seeking a public education which is the most basic civil right.

Copperopolis, CA...In 1895 James A. Tower was only 16 years old when, using barbed wire fencing, he strung the first telephone line for what was to become The Calaveras Telephone Company. As demands for the telephone service increased, the young Mr. Tower found it necessary to establish a central office in the small community of Felix near the town of Copperopolis. Then in 1899, Mr. Tower, now 20 years old, negotiated an agreement with Sunset Telephone Company that would connect his subscribers by telephone with the rest of the world.
