State lawmakers have a way to make up in part with the unions for passage of the pension reform bill that has them howling.
A move is afoot to place a measure in the budget bill due this week to seal the results of the much heralded teacher evaluations. The Post reports lawmakers are under considerable pressure to do so and that Senate Republicans may go along.
Recently the Post published evaluations of 12,000 NYC teachers.
Of course the release of evaluations is problematic for the media. As a reporter, what do you do if your teacher spouse scores poorly ?
Better just keep 'em secret.

They should keep it secret. Most citizens aren't smart enough to know what to do with the information anyway. After all, they're gradjiates of the public school system themselves.
As long as they don't release the cop's or fireman's or snowplow drivers evaluations then I am fine with it. Oh wait...those jobs don't get any real evaluations in the first place.
Wouldn't want to identify the short poppies now, would we?
Then I assume you advocate the release all public employee evaluation reports, right, Mr. Mayor?
Privacy be damned (except when it involves you). Those evaulations are not public records. If so, stop holding "executive sessions to discuss personal matters," too.
You finally did it, Dannie. You finally posted something that makes sense, wasn't spoon fed to you by your Donkey party owners, and is balanced. I agree with you. It's a tough question to answer. The problem as I see it isn't the public release of such information. Its the fact that teachers weren't evaluated in any meaningful way whatsoever. The tenure protections went too far.
oh here goes the "public employees don't have evaluations" guy again.guess again dummy they do,what is your job?
Probably nothing, sitting around second guessing workers on the computer without being able to do their jobs..typical keyboard pussy..
Would keyboard pussy now be considered legal in Canada?
Did your captain/sarge tell you what to type on here 11:03? Better be careful or you might get put on indefinite suspension like the tuff talking copper in New Orleans did this week. Oh wait...never mind, cops are only held accountable 1 in a million times they do something wrong.
Anon 10:13... if you knew me better, which I am sure you are not willing to consider, you would see how level-headed I am.
Thanks for the compliment.
