After SPIN! Video: Should teachers remain employed while taking leave?

Published December 10, 2015

After SPIN! "Question to Connie Wilson – Republican legislators are criticizing school boards for allowing teachers to remain employed while taking leave to work for state organizations. Specifically, the group is aiming at Rodney Ellis, who works for NCAE. That group reimburses Winston-Salem/ Forsyth County Schools for Ellis’ salary and benefits. Is it a case where lawmakers are mainly mad because Ellis and NCAE is highly critical of their actions and want to strike back? How big an issue is this and does it occur with other state employees?"
