"You need to reconsider our hard work and dedication of wanting to do and be the best in our profession. Please don't deny us the promise of being compensated for our hard work in accomplishing NBC certification."
"Governor Perdue, please remember that if we are not compensated, we are no longer required to serve in at-risk schools. The loss of leadership of NBCTs in at-risk schools could be catastrophic! If the program cannot be fully funded, at least partially fun"
"Taking away something that was promised to us and that was worked hard to achieve is not sending a good message to educators across our great state."
"My grandfather graduated from Georgia Tech in 1915. He was the first student from Clayton County to enroll at Georgia Tech. Please continue to value education the way my Georgia family has done for generations."
"This process has been viewed as certification for Master Teacher in field specified. If you take away the pay incentive, teachers will not attempt to view their teaching as professional or a process to improve their professionalism in the classroom."
"We work hard and paid a high price to get the certification. It is a breach of trust to take the stipend away."
"Classroom teachers should keep their supplement"
"You need to do the research to understand how important it is for NBCTs to get their stipend. What they do for our schools no one else can or does do!"
