    Reality checks:

    1) RIFed teachers MUST LEGALLY be hired first for positions!

    2) Decent principals want experienced teachers not those who
    are "single, cheaper, feshly trained and seen as less likely to
    be dogmatic implements to change".

    3) Refusing to hire older staff and giving jobs to 22 year olds
    because they are "healthier, more energetic, more tech savvy and
    cheaper.." is AGE DISCRIMINATION!

    4) In this economy there are many applicants for jobs.. it is
    simply not credible that most jobs go to those with the least
    experience.

    If your district only hires 22-27 year olds, that is a MAJOR red
    flag something is not right within the district.
