Teachers Here Vote To Push Consultation Pact
The Baytown Teachers Association voted to pursue a professional consultation agreement with the school board and district staff following a speech by Weldon Wicker. He noted many districts already have such accords and argued it benefits both teachers and administrators, while the Educational Advisory Council operates separately from these guidelines. BCTA has pushed for consultations since 1965 and anticipates 1969 legislation from TCTA to implement the Governor’s Committee report, likely as multiple bills.
