The article discusses a 2013 lawsuit filed against Florida's education department and education commissioner Tony Bennett by the National Education Association (NEA) teachers' union regarding Florida's teacher evaluations, which the NEA claims are sometimes based on the academic achievement of students or subjects unrelated to the teacher. State standardized tests, teacher salaries, and teachers' constitutional rights are also mentioned.
