Teachers unions should be banned, and teachers should advance due to merit. Our education system is terrible.
Politics. You would not believe the politics in hiring, firing and promoting teachers....
So, the ones who advance are the social climbers, who put their fingers to the wind and say whatever is most socially and economically beneficial for them to say?

That, and political connections.
Local schoolboards are a hotbed of politics, second only to the sheriff's office.

I had a few summer jobs while in high school that were a result of school department connections.
Many school department employees had at least some academic credentials.
But the Department of Public Works had no such restrictions. The DPW was pure politics at it's finest.
