Naturally, it pays when the classes pass with grade and you get a raise.

If not you might not at all or take more work or a cut.

For the last 40+ years there has been a measured value put on each
teacher. Did they do this or that grade. Did they do this or that
another... and the grade determines who is a good teacher. (HaHa Not.)

Classroom teacher for 9 years , College for 11.

It has nothing to do with "curves." Look into the calculations for
prediction rate. Those can't be fudged. They either got it right or
they didn't. If you looked into it further, you'd see that the bias
rates are similarly matters of objective calculation.

There is no argument with those ratings, Martin. You either understand
them and the hard facts from which they're calculated, or you don't.
