The value of teachers

Interesting op-ed in the NYT yesterday about how valuable a good fourth grade teacher is:

I find it interesting how teacher's unions argue that its parents have a far greater influence on students outcomes than teachers. They're essentially arguing that their profession isn't important? Who does that?
