Around 10 teachers at my junior high of approximately 580 could be hired if we were funded at the national average.... The government needs to #stoptheexcuses

[Alberta Teachers' Association @albertateachers]

Teachers are sharing passionate and heartfelt personal accounts of their challenges with class size and complexity to show support for this important directive. #ARA2024 #abed #stoptheexcuses

[Allison McCaffrey - VP, Alberta Teachers’ Assoc. @allimc456]

Listening to absolutely gut wrenching stories by teachers resulting from AB being the lowest-funded public education system in Canada.

Our teachers are breaking.

#StopTheExcuses

We MUST fully fund public education. #ARA2024 @albertateachers

[Ms. Lutzmann @MsLutzmann]

Danielle Smith ends the debate by promising to listen to us. 🙄

[Public Interest AB @PIAlberta]

The UCP hope you forget about their track record of cuts & privatization. They hope you’ll forget about the past 4 years of blunders and chaos.

Well, we didn’t forget.

We’ve collected over 350 examples of their damage to our province.

Parents, instead of complaining to your child’s teacher about large class sizes in AB, please take your complaints to the source of the problem: @AdrianaLaGrange & the @Alberta_UCP. Min.LaGrange’s phone # is 403-342-2263 & her email is [email protected]. #AbEd

[Jonathan Hemphill @MrJHemphill]

I recieved neither an email nor a letter through the mail about this.

[Adriana LaGrange @AdrianaLaGrange]

Alberta Education communicated with teachers and teacher leaders by email or postal mail over the summer to ensure that they were informed about the registry and how to apply for an exemption. 2/10

Thankful for this endorsement from Dr. Glynnis Lieb (@GlynnisYeg), a #yeg-based Social Psychologist, educator, and 2SLGBTQIA+ Advocate. #yegSouth #abpoli #ableg

I appreciate (and respect) that some of my @albertateachers colleagues were not having any of it at the #ATASumCon debate. Teachers have diverse views, like the 49 / 51 vote. Its important for all of us to remember that. #abed

SAVE THE DATE TEACHERS!

@AB_AgainstUCP @CraigCoolahan @jkenney @FairQuestions @ABDanielleSmith When D Smith was jeered by teachers for saying she gets her info from D Staples, and she replied with "respect is a two-way street," what about respect for truth? For historical fact? Those who get facts wrong and those who listen to wrong facts get ridiculed.

[Craig Coolahan @CraigCoolahan]

"When Smith said she had spoken with Postmedia columnist David Staples on the K-12 curriculum, she was met with laughter and groans."

@jkenney had @FairQuestions helping him make bad decisions. @ABDanielleSmith has Staples.

We're doomed!

@MrKrawchuk You have been an asset to the political engagement programs in both @EdPubTeachers and @albertateachers. I cannot wait to see what else you will contribute.
