Only In Broward: Teachers Edition

Leave a reply

What a week for Broward teachers. First, Pat Santeramo spends a few days in jail for looting the BTU coffers and making illegal campaign contributions. Then, John Tarka (D-Dont shake my hand) says Pat’s cohorts in crime will keep their BTU leadership positions.

But they’ve saved the worst for last. Our schoolhouse mole says the BTU IS GOING TO RAISE THE AMOUNT OF DUES EACH TEACHER PAYS.

The good news? There will be a big back-to-school BBQ at Pat’s waterfront mansion in August. Food and drinks not included.

And they say Republicans hate teachers…

Only in Broward.

“Teacher OF The Year” Robert Sutton Talks To Media About Pat Santeramo Arrest

1 Reply

Robert “Bob” Sutton, a former Broward high school “Teacher Of The Year” and current County Commission candidate, spoke to the south Florida media regarding the arrest of former Broward Teachers Union president Pat Santeramo. The media swarmed Sutton following Broward Sheriff Al Lamberti’s press conference at BSO headquarters. Sutton addressed several tough questions to BTU administrator John Tarka who participated in the press conference. Sutton made it clear to Tarka that teachers and union stewards were uncomfortable knowing several BTU officials charged in the investigation were still in powerful positions.

Robert Sutton will face Stacy Ritter (D-Booby Trap) in the November election for Broward County Commission District 3.
