Will Barbara Kerr change Long Beach, or will it change her?

Former CTA president Barbara Kerr has taken over as trustee of TALB. Achieving some of the goals on the TALB website will require a change in Barbara's behavior.

DO THESE GOALS REQUIRE A CHANGE FROM BARBARA?

1. "Promote teachers' legal rights"(when crimes committed)--
NO CHANGE REQUIRED
2. "Promote (law-abiding) teachers' legal rights" --
BIG IMPROVEMENT NEEDED
2. "Protect our members" who commit crimes--
NO CHANGE REQUIRED
3. "Protect..." honest, high-performing teachers--
IMPROVEMENT NEEDED
4. "Organize its membership for influence & power"--
NO CHANGE REQUIRED
