@MrZachG Top performing schools have top performing parents and teachers that get to do what they excel at...teach their subject area.

@MsEscoTeaches One but also are required to be at the back to school night that starts at 5:30pm after the second full inservice day.

@AllisonETEC @tetheredtoed1 Sad reality

@ThrillaRilla369 100% spot on...I walked 5 miles across pastures from town to go fishing then back home after dark.

@cheri_pimath A rising tide lifts all ships. We should support our colleagues getting awards and celebrate with them. Unreal...

Hey so yeah if social skills were taught at all at home we wouldn't have to teach them at school. School shouldn't be the first place where a child is told no or has actual consequences for their actions.

Wait until you hear about “Teacher of the Year” awards.

@Harvard If you're a private institution with billions in endowments don't take money from the government.

@DisrespectedThe You don't need to go to college to be intelligent but you still need teachers, doctors, counselors, and a host of other professions that require a college degree.

@NickSwardson Beauty and the Beast

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

WHY ARE TEACHERS LEAVING THE PROFESSION?

•Inadequate preparation for new teachers
•Lack of support, respect
•Class sizes
•Low salaries
•Lunch & prep times are too short
•Better opportunities elsewhere
•Student behaviors with inadequate consequences

MUST DO BETTER!

@sage_stage Our route bus drivers get $32.50 an hour. Most are vans.

@FixingEducation If that happened I would bet that admin would have a much easier time with student behaviors, scheduling, etc because the teachers would feel valued and wanting to help admin more. Interesting thought!

In sports, the players typically earn more than the head coach.

In education, the teachers should be the ones earning more than the administrators.

[Justin Bosak @JustinBosak1]

I just overheard a prominent leader addressing a group of junior/senior high students. He asked the group, "What is something that stresses you out?" First answer was sports. That just struck me as kind of sad.

@rockledgehiker @FixingEducation Right? I teach summer school to pay bills.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

“You have such an easy job!”
“You don’t work many hours!”
“You get to go home at 3!”
“You get summers off!”
“You have so many breaks during the year!”

IF IT’S SO GREAT, why does America currently have the biggest teaching shortage in U.S. history?
