Couldn’t agree more and the same theory applies to parents!

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Do bad teachers exist? Of course.

But hating ALL teachers because you viewed a video showing an indoctrinating teacher is like hating all doctors after listening to the Dr Death podcast.

The vast majority of teachers care deeply for kids and are constantly advocating for them.

@FixingEducation 100% A profession not everyone can do. It’s troubling teachers remain on the defensive, perpetuating negativity instead of using their voice w/pride & sharing success stories. Be proud & speak proudly. Use your voice to tell all the remarkable stories of student learning.

@SLCSDolsen What a great performance!!!!

@RepTomBarrett Families in your district have asked for a Town Hall meeting. We are the regular, busy constituents without a lobbying group. #ValueFamilies

Who Cares? As the school year comes to a close, this is an important question to ask your self! https://t.co/2IIlBD9o21

[Barb Flis @ParentAction]

This is not every parent nor does every teacher feel this way. Can you come out from behind the curtain of @FixingEducation? Your rant of anger doesn’t fix anything, it keeps teachers stuck in a negative spiral. My kids teachers used a Strength-Based practice. Try it, it works!

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Parents, can you please indoctrinate your kids to be kind, respectful, honest, curious and hard working? Thanks.

Sincerely,
Every Teacher in the World

I wish SOME teachers would stop complaining about “parents.” Chronic complaining triggers anxiety & then, surprise, it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. Be kind to yourself for heavens sake, parents & kids need you. Look for parents trying & surely you will find them. ❤️

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

I wish parents would ‘indoctrinate’ their kids into being respectful and responsible students along with a splash of perseverance.

@MarcusLuther6 I have no idea, but this is what I love about teachers, always striving to reach and teach students. Thank you!!! 👏👏👏

So true, same for parents, the system is failing parents too! #valuefamilies

[Nicholas Ferroni @NicholasFerroni]

Public schools are not failing students.

Public school teachers are not failing students.

The system is failing public schools, teachers and students.

Stop saying public schools and teachers are failing students when the system is setting them up to fail.

Why does it always boil down to “warning kids about the danger” & “tips for parents”? Let’s back the bus up. How about legislators, when legalizing controlled substances, put guardrails on packaging & make the industry accountable. You all collect the revenue at kids’ expense.

Multiple elementary students have been sent to the hospital after ingesting “unidentified edibles.” @sramosABC breaks down what parents need to know.

@SLCSDolsen A brilliant idea!!! Critical thinking, creativity, imagination, entrepreneurship, finances and tons of fun! The students were geeked about it! Thank you @SLCSDolsen 4th grade teachers!

@joshualistening Find your quiet time, it is good for your sensitive, creative soul. Give & receive comfort then listen to what is next for you, it is right there if you listen. 🙏❤️🙏

Thank you @AndriaEisman for your dedication to research on behalf of students. 💚🤍

The trauma of a violent act reverberates out to so many, but so does love. Do an act of kindness today, give a hug, show appreciation, say I love you often. Allow love to take over the vibrational field. The victims, bystanders, & grieving families will feel it. Let love win!

[Barb Flis @ParentAction]

Thanks @RichardKlee1 for your dedication to students and their learning. 💚🤍
