Leaders with Johnson City Schools took to social media on Friday to show support and appreciation for area teachers. The post says Tennessee public educators illuminate the path to a better future, and pour their hearts into serving students.
Johnson City Schools’ post comes shortly after unflattering comments about teachers, made by Hillsdale College leader Larry Arnn at a private gathering with Tennessee Governor Bill Lee were leaked to the public.
Arnn, who was hand-picked by Lee to jump-start charter schools in the state, said teachers are being trained “in the dumbest parts of the dumbest colleges in the country.” The governor told a talk radio host that Arnn’s comments were not about Tennessee teachers but aimed at the left-wing agenda that has been woven into today’s education system. Lee also said the subject will not be debated further.
