According to a January 4, 2007 article from USA Today, a new online database from the National Council on Teacher Quality - Teacher Rules, Roles and Rights - allows the general public to compare the 50 largest U.S. school districts, based on data from union collective-bargaining agreements and state policies. By the end of the year, it is anticipated that the database will include information for the nation's 100 largest school districts. While most experts agree that streamlined access to this data is a positive step, some are concerned that the public may not understand there is more involved in teacher labor relations than what is represented on the Web site.
The article is available at the USA Today Web site.
