Student behavior is out of control. I advise everyone thinking about teaching to find a new career. Public education is NOT getting better. The system is broken.

One of our kids brought us Taco Bell!

10 out of the 12 of these juniors/seniors are ready to apply to either the Smyrna or Murfreesboro TCAT! I’d say this was a successful trip!! @RockvaleHigh_TN

[Mrs. Milstead @Mrs_Milstead]

Visiting the TCAT locations today with some juniors/seniors. Been a fun experience so far! @RockvaleHigh_TN

Part of admin recertification should be returning to the classroom every five years. At least teach a regular classroom; students w/ 504's, IEP's, make the parent contacts, complete all the paperwork, create lesson plans, be observed, & do everything a teacher is required to do.

@CanuckPlucky @NicholasFerroni I make less than both of those & my husband I think JUST hit the 61,000 because he got his MASTERS. Yes most do fine but not all. Why should we have to do just fine? Why can’t we be appropriately paid like any other profession? There’s so many stipulations with teaching too

Why Are Teachers So Tired All The Time? 😴

Research shows we make about 1,500 decisions a day! The constant requirement to ‘be on’ becomes DRAINING to our brains and bodies. It is called ‘Decision Fatigue’.

This explains a lot!!

[Mrs. Milstead @Mrs_Milstead]

@FixingEducation Yeah I’d have to agree….was put on anxiety medication this summer and it’s been much better but still have moments. Small things can give us anxiety too….messy desk, stack of ungraded papers, told to do something we have no experience in

Be kind. Say thank you. Hold the door open. Compliment as many people as you can. Point out the good and be the good. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Love, serve and care. The world needs more of this today (and every day)!

@_sdrown They’re always shocked when they find out I’m older than Loomis 😂
