Who Needs Privacy?

Certainly a teacher's personnel file shouldn't be private, at least that is what the Illinois State-Journal editorial board says:

If this law is going to leave that decision [to hire or fire a teacher] with the school district, then we believe parents deserve to know that the teacher in their child’s classroom has failed to live up to the professional standards established by the school district
.

I'm not sure of a single job anywhere where the public has access to personnel files. It's a basic right of privacy for the individual.

Isn't it?
