We are grieving with Parkland. But we are not powerless. Caring for our kids is our first job. And until we can honestly say that we're doing enough to keep them safe from harm, including long overdue, common-sense gun safety laws that most Americans want, then we have to change.
Here is my homage to the professionals who spend their careers nurturing other people’s children as if they were our own. (With apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning…) #LoveTeaching#ValentinesDay https://t.co/gX1kN4rw4S
At State of the State speech Gov Walker tried to claim he's been advocate for public schools. #'s don't lie:
The state is spending about 11% less on K-12 public ed than it did in '08. Voucher schools receive more state $ per student than public schools. https://t.co/oTQmUHNRbE
.@WEAC teachers are commenting on proposed licensing changes at public hearings this month. Mr. Roup, a De Pere teacher, gives his input at this @WisconsinDPI hearing in Green Bay today. @GBEA
I'm SO excited about this! Podcasts, blogs, & videos for new educators from those who have been there, done that. Learn more about School Me: https://t.co/NSCfhPUKdS #ntchat#schoolme
Another huge broken promise. Trump railed against the carried interest loophole and promised to cut it. Then he appointed a Goldman alum as Treasury Secretary, and Mnuchin went to bat to save the loophole. So many broken promises https://t.co/9SXb4wgqts
This #GOPTaxScam is a disaster for students & educators. The partial elimination of the SALT deduction puts in jeopardy the ability of states & communities to fund public education, potentially risking funding for more than 130k education jobs. More: https://t.co/kmyslTnJOi
Our hearts are breaking as we hear of another deadly school shooting. As educators it's always devastating. We mourn with the families of the victims and the whole Aztec High school community. @NEANewMexico#EndGunViolence https://t.co/BXxVOWocSh
Happy #AmericanEducationWeek! We believe public schools are the cornerstone of communities, where we provide students with the support and tools they need and deserve, and bring people from all walks of life together. #PublicSchoolsForAll https://t.co/CL1RRp9tz7
