The Vergara Verdict: Tenure and Seniority Laws Ruled Unconstitutional in California

By dianeravitch

June 10, 2014

Here are two accounts of the decision in the Vergara trial. This one appears in politico.com. This one appears in the New York Times.

The plaintiffs argued that poor and minority children suffered because they had ineffective teachers who could not be fired. Lawyers for the teachers unions maintained that the causes of low performance were poverty and inadequate school funding. The plaintiffs prevailed and promised to take their cause to other states with strong teacher job protections, like New Jersey and New York.

There will be appeals, and the battle will spread to other states. As due process is removed, it seems to be replaced by evaluations of “effectiveness” based on test scores.

(202) 270-5333 cell, smaiers@nea.orgNEA PRESIDENT: CALIFORNIA RULING ALLOWS CORPORATE INTERESTS TO TRUMP STUDENTS’ NEEDS
Deeply flawed verdict goes against research proven to enhance teacher effectivenessWASHINGTON— A California Superior Court judge today sided with Silicon Valley multimillionaire David Welch and his ultra-rich cronies in the meritless lawsuit of Vergara v. State of California. The lawsuit was brought by deep-pocketed corporate special interests intent on driving a corporate agenda geared toward privatizing public education and attacking educators.NEA’s affiliate, the California Teachers Association, and the California Federation of Teachers intervened in the case to ensure schools can continue to attract and retain quality teachers in our classrooms and to give voice to systems that research and experience show are key factors in effective teaching.The following statement can be attributed to NEA President Dennis Van Roekel:“Just like the meritless lawsuit of Vergara v. State of California, the ruling by Superior Court Judge Rolf Treu is deeply flawed. Today’s ruling would make it harder to attract and retain quality teachers in our classrooms and ignores all research that shows experience is a key factor in effective teaching. The National Education Association supports the California Teachers Association in its appeal of today’s decision.“Let’s be clear: This lawsuit was never about helping students, but is yet another attempt by millionaires and corporate special interests to undermine the teaching profession and push their own ideological agenda on public schools and students while working to privatize public education. Research shows experience enhances teacher effectiveness and increases student productivity at all grade levels, and that ultimately contributes to better outcomes for students. Yet, today’s ruling hurts students and serves only to undermine the ability of school districts to recruit and retain high quality teachers.“NEA will continue to stand up for students and focus on the ingredients that are proven to help students the most—like supporting new teachers, providing ongoing training, paying teachers a decent salary, and developing reliable evaluation systems to measure teacher effectiveness.”Here is the statement by AFT on the Case:“WASHINGTON – Statement from American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten on today’s Vergara v. California decision.“Today, as the Vergara decision was rendered, thousands of California classrooms were brimming with teachers teaching and students learning. They see themselves as a team, but sadly, this case now stoops to pitting students against their teachers. The other side wanted a headline that reads: “Students win, teachers lose.” This is a sad day for public education.“While this decision is not unexpected, the rhetoric and lack of a thorough, reasoned opinion is disturbing. For example, the judge believes that due process is essential, but his objection boils down to his feeling that two years is not long enough for probation. He argues, as we do, that no one should tolerate bad teachers in the classroom. He is right on that. But in focusing on these teachers who make up a fraction of the workforce, he strips the hundreds of thousands of teachers who are doing a good job of any right to a voice. In focusing on who should be laid off in times of budget crises, he omits the larger problem at play: full and fair funding of our schools so all kids have access to the classes—like music, art and physical education—and opportunities they need.“It’s surprising that the court, which used its bully pulpit when it came to criticizing teacher protections, did not spend one second discussing funding inequities, school segregation, high poverty or any other out-of-school or in-school factors that are proven to affect student achievement and our children. We must lift up solutions that speak to these factors—solutions like wraparound services, early childhood education and project-based learning.“Sadly, there is nothing in this opinion that suggests a thoughtful analysis of how these statutes should work. There is very little that lays groundwork for a path forward. Other states have determined better ways—ways that don’t pit teachers against students, but lift up entire communities. Every child is entitled to a high-quality education regardless of his or her ZIP code. And no parent should have to rely on a lottery system to get his or her child into a good school.“This will not be the last word. As this case makes it through an appeal, we will continue to do what we’ve done in state after state. We will continue to work with parents and communities to fight for safe and welcoming neighborhood public schools that value both kids and the women and men who work with them. No wealthy benefactor with an extreme agenda will detour us from our path to reclaim the promise of public education.”---

Silicon Valley entrepreneur David Welch made his money creating breakthrough technology in fiber optic communication and building hardware to run the massive interenet networks of the future.

He's spending it - at least some of it - on a pet project that could substantially change teaching in California and the rest of the country.

Welch is the man behind <a href="http://studentsmatter.org/" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;">Students Matter</a>, the advocacy group that recruited nine public school students to sue the state of California, saying teacher job protections harm their ability to get the 'adequate' education they are promised in the state constitution.

Despite not having a background in public education, he said he had no choice but to take on the issue.

“About four years ago, I got to the point where there was too many children that were being harmed in the system,” he said. “If I had the capability of doing the right thing to make life better for someone else or for my society, then I try to do it.”

In interviews, Welch wouldn't say how much money the case has cost him. It's no doubt been substantial.

<a href="http://www2.guidestar.org/FinDocuments/2012/273/816/2012-273816952-098e670b-9.pdf" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;">Tax records for 2012</a> show he loaned Students Matter nearly $1 million that year alone, half of which was spent on public relations. The group paid $1.1 million to lawyers which ultimately filed the suit, called Vergara vs. California.

That was before the suit was filed, before a legal team led by high powered lawyer Ted Boutrous of Gibson Dunn & Crutcher faced off in a Los Angles courtroom for two months this year against a team of lawyers from the state Attorney General’s office and others hired by California teachers unions.

Los Angeles Superior Court judge Rolf Treu said he'll issue a ruling by July. Both sides vow to appeal a decision that isn’t in their favor.

Welch said he firmly believes California schools are failing.

He said the public schools he attended Maryland were full of passionate teachers and paved the road for him to earn a Ph.D. in engineering at Cornell University.

He said he set out to find out why he wasn't seeing that in California classrooms.

“I went around and talked to a large number of individuals and they would range from parents to superintendents to teachers and asked them ‘If you had one magical thing you could do within the system, what would it be?’” he said.

They told him they would change the way teachers are hired, evaluated, and laid off because the current system protects bad teachers, he said.

“When I wake up in the morning, I ask myself, and I guide myself, do the right thing,” Welch said.

Vergara vs. California is Students Matter's first effort. The nonprofit's stated mission is to litigate for better education policies. Welch said he'll support similar lawsuits in other states. He said he's passionate about giving kids the tools they need to succeed academically.

His opponents said he's part of the charter reform movement, which they say seeks to privatize public education.

“People like David Welch, Eli Broad, the Waltons, the Michelle Rhees, have been able to spend a lot of money creating a narrative that sees educators as the problem in public education,” said Joshua Pechthalt, president of the California Federation of Teachers.

Welch said the unions are making him out to be more powerful than he is. And he insists there's nothing wrong with asking courts to decide if public schools are doing what they’re supposed to be doing - or with aligning with like-minded advocates.

“I am interested in having anyone who believes in putting children first in the education system," he said. "If Mr. Broad, or Michelle Rhee are part of that then I welcome their support."=<a href="http://neatoday.org/2016/04/14/vergara-overturned-appeals-court/">http://neatoday.org/2016/04/14/vergara-overturned-appeals-court/</a><p style="margin: 0px 0px 2.4rem; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; orphans: 4;">On Thursday, the California Court of Appeal, <a href="http://www.courts.ca.gov/opinions/documents/B258589.PDF" target="blank" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);">in a unanimous decision,</a> overturned the <a href="http://neatoday.org/2014/06/10/wrong-call-a-california-judge-picks-big-money-over-teachers-and-students/" target="blank" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);">deeply-flawed lower court ruling in <em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">Vergara v.

Within permanent status there is a procedure for dismissing teachers which guarantees due process and impartial consideration of the facts when disagreement about the facts exists.  Not surprisingly, Torlakson and Tuck are on opposite sides of the ruling. Torlakson, as State Superintendent, appealed the ruling, while Tuck not only promised to uphold Vegara if elected, <a rel="nofollow" track="on" href="https://act.marshalltuck.com/media/2014/6/10/vergara-ruling-a-major-victory-for-kids?utm_source=BIG+money+donors+lose+BIG+in+California+State+Superintendent+Race&utm_campaign=June+24&utm_medium=email" shape="rect" linktype="1" target="blank" style="">he praised the decision</a> as "a major victory for California's students, and a repudiation of the failed Sacramento status quo."   Tuck's Vergara position attracted millions in contributions from anti-tenure, pro-privatization forces from around the country. Here at NPE, we decided to dig deep into the millions contributed to Tuck, and what we found was nothing short of astounding.  It didn't take long to uncover that the top contributor in the race, William E. Bloomfield (AKA Bill), was no stranger to Vergara. Bloomfield, a California businessman, entrepreneur, and self proclaimed "<a rel="nofollow" track="on" href="http://www.billbloomfield.com/about-bill-bloomfield/?utm_source=BIG+money+donors+lose+BIG+in+California+State+Superintendent+Race&utm_campaign=June+24&utm_medium=email" shape="rect" linktype="1" target="blank" style="">education advocate</a>," was a major supporter of the Vergara decision. He also supports Students Matter, the non profit group founded by Silicon Valley entrepreneur David Welch, who is the driving force behind Vergara. Students Matter has spent untold sums of money, <a rel="nofollow" track="on" shape="rect" href="http://mothercrusader.blogspot.com/2014/06/a-silicon-valley-entrepreneur.html?utm_source=BIG+money+donors+lose+BIG+in+California+State+Superintendent+Race&utm_campaign=June+24&utm_medium=email" linktype="1" target="blank" style="">mostly Welch's,</a> to bring the Vergara case to trial, and to spread cases like it across the nation.  [twit]
David Welch himself made a $6,000 contribution directly to Tuck's campaign, as did RALLY, the "issues advocacy firm" that "manages all communication, coalition building and strategy" for Welch's Students Matter. The Students Matter website states that the Rally campaign "<a rel="nofollow" track="on" shape="rect" href="http://studentsmatter.org/our-team/rally/?utm_source=BIG+money+donors+lose+BIG+in+California+State+Superintendent+Race&utm_campaign=June+24&utm_medium=email" linktype="1" target="blank" style="font-family: " times="Times" new="New" roman="Roman" font-size="font-size" large="large">leverages the lawsuit as a platform to reframe the debate around education reform</a>." Electing Tuck to the State Superintendent's position certainly would have helped in that effort. Heavy hitters in the "education reform" movement, namely Broad, Walton and Fisher, really stepped up to the plate for Tuck by donating millions to multiple Independent Expenditure Committees, (AKA Super PACs) as well as smaller direct contributions to Tuck's campaign. The biggest Super PAC contributing to Tuck was the deceptively named "Parents and Teachers for Tuck for State Superintendent, 2014." The Super PAC's funding came from no less than a baker'sdozen of privatization focused billionaires, and assorted elites from the financial and technology sectors, with a net contribution of almost 10 million dollars. </div><div style=""> <img height="166" vspace="20" name="ACCOUNT.IMAGE.326" border="0" hspace="20" width="250" src="https://ih.constantcontact.com/fs138/1112503958313/img/326.jpg?a=1119228590790" align="left" />Parents and Teachers for Tuck also received contributions from a host of other Super PACs with names like Parents and Teachers for Putting Students First, Education Matters, EDVOICE, and Great Public Schools for Los Angeles. A closer look at these Super PACs tells us that they too are funded by essentially the same cast of characters behind Parents and Teachers for Tuck, with additional millions from the Broad, Fisher and Walton families lining the coffers of each of the Super PACs.  But you'd be hard pressed to find a public school parent or teacher who contributed to any of the Super PACs for Tuck. <table class="imgCaptionTable" width="299" align="right" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-align: center; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px;"><tbody><tr><td class="imgCaptionImg" width="289" rowspan="1" colspan="1"><img height="351" vspace="0" name="ACCOUNT.IMAGE.328" border="0" hspace="0" width="249" src="https://ih.constantcontact.com/fs138/1112503958313/img/328.jpg?a=1119228590790" /></td></tr><tr><td class="imgCaptionText" rowspan="1" colspan="1" style="">Follow the Money Behind Tuck</td></tr></tbody></table>In all these billionaire backed PACs put an additional $300,000 back into the heavy hitting Parents and Teachers for Tuck PAC.  One of the PACs, Education Matters, was entirely funded by $250,000 from California real estate developer Stephen Chamberlin and his wife Susan. Education Matters contributed $105,000 to Parents and Teachers for Tuck, and the Chamberlins contributed in excess of $125,000 total to Parents and Teachers for Tuck and directly to Tuck's campaign, for a grand total of almost a quarter of a million dollars. Click <a rel="nofollow" track="on" href="http://www.networkforpubliceducation.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Tuck-Money-Flowchart-4.pdf?utm_source=BIG+money+donors+lose+BIG+in+California+State+Superintendent+Race&utm_campaign=June+24&utm_medium=email" shape="rect" linktype="1" target="blank" style="">here</a> to see and download the full size graphic of some of the major contributors and you too can follow the millions that failed to elect Tuck!

The outcome of this election will make it infinitely harder for the decision to stand on appeal, and for the decision to gain momentum as similar cases spring up in other cities in other states.  </div><div style="">In the aftermath of the Citizens United decision it has become abundantly clear that corporate money has played a tremendous role in elections at all levels in all parts of the country.
