Bonus Pay: Elitist and Inequitable

Responding again to the article in the January 25th The Oregonian.(http://www.oregonlive.com/education/index.ssf/2013/01/tying_teacher_pay_to_test_scor.html#incart_m-rpt-2)

Teachers do not teach in isolation and they can't succeed without classified staff such as instructional aides, custodians, secretaries, and cooks. Any financial bonus system for student success is inherently inequitable if it excludes classified staff.
