Americans used to be smart and logical and tough. The teachers did this ultimately. The unions are refusing to follow the law or the Constitution. I think the entirety of teacher's unions should be deemed enemy combatants. Teachers should quit now, en masse, or be deemed enemies of the state. That is all.

Unions serve a purpose: a check on the power of large capitalists. That said, there is no need to check the power of a public institution (assuming it is truly representative of the public, and working for the public good). Unions of public employees should not be recognized, as they only work against the public interest. California is a good example of this, as it's government was efficient and servicial up until the government allowed the unions in under Jerry Brown's early term in the 70s, and the downhill slide began.
