Good thing I’m not working … without internet since Friday afternoon. @ATT Can we get this resolved??

And yet 20+ are victims of a school shooting. 😢 Somehow not discussing love and relationships is our biggest problem.

I am no longer in the classroom but I support teachers. True support doesn’t just mean supporting them with instruction but advocating for them when I see a need! I will always stand up for educators!

[Joy Southwell @JoySouthwell]

@nckhui Thank you @CSpearsEDU !

@BeckiAllenforNC What people do an say to our board, students and staff affects morale. There’s a lot of work that needs to be done but it starts with our community!

[Joy Southwell @JoySouthwell]

@BeckiAllenforNC First and foremost, we need support from the community. The way I heard our system talked about last night and saw 2 students speak and NOT get applause from a particular side of the room appalling.

[Joy Southwell @JoySouthwell]

@BeckiAllenforNC @nckhui Thank you Becki!

@MendelIzzy @OfSonof @nckhui Thank you for supporting teachers!

[Joy Southwell @JoySouthwell]

@nckhui I care about all children!

[Joy Southwell @JoySouthwell]

@nckhui Interesting how we were heroes when school went virtual but we come back and work very hard to catch students up and readjust them to school and we are all of a sudden the bad guys. Yes, it feels like a personal attack on a career I’ve poured my life into for 25 years because

[Joy Southwell @JoySouthwell]

Yes I did!

[Keung Hui @nckhui]

Joy Elliott, a special-ed teacher, tells Wake County school board that some teachers are hanging on a thread as they help students readjust to classroom while being attacked. Elliott says parents should be an advocate for their child’s teachers & not an adversary. #wcpss

North Carolina teachers take longer to reach max of salary schedule compared to state employees such as State Highway Patrol, SBi, ALE, probation, parole & corrections officers & court employees. #nced #ncpol
