A year from now, I know many adults will claim to have supported this. Letโs not forget that this was a student-led effort. Adults need to listen better when youth speak rather than claim support after the policy has been changed. Proud of @trinityxac https://t.co/Ncy8L7LOLw
Today my students, who have had a reputation for being really difficult (they are more challenging than most classes I have had, lol), randomly started talking about all the things teachers had done that made them feel unworthy of learning. It was a wild eye-opening moment. 1/2
I was diagnosed with leukemia in the fall. Iโve been looking at my medical bills and how they would be substantially different if I did not have a job with strong union benefits. Unions matter. Thanks @CTULocal1 ๐ช๐ผ
Remember when we were told they weren't opposing the teaching of Black history, just "CRT"? And how many dismissed those of us who said these laws were anti-history laws, and anti-Black? Perhaps one day folks will listen to those who know. https://t.co/LnBhTYcMsZ

CTU NEWS: Regarding the discipline of George Washington High School teachers Lauren Bianchi and Chuck Stark for public protest of the relocation of General Iron, the Board of Ed, by a vote of 6-0, moved to reject the recommendation of termination and issue warnings to both.
@GWHS_Patriots deserve better. We are one of the few neighborhood south side schools to see enrollment increases every year. The community invests in GWHS. @ChiPubSchools needs to invest in us too. We need a new building NOW @chicagosmayor@SSadlowskiGarza
Hey @GWHS_Patriots! Sign up to attend our 3rd Annual Unity Conference! ๐๐ป๐๐ป

@GWgirlssoccer JV team has been the ONLY neighborhood HS to make it to city semi-finals consistently for the last 5 or so years. Yet we donโt have our own field. @GWHS_Patriots deserves quality athletic facilities. Invest in neighborhood schools! @chicagosmayor@ChiPubSchools
I tested positive for COVID for the first time Sunday. Made it two years with being extra precautious of my health and surroundings.
What changed? Being forced to teach in person at the height of the pandemic.
@chicagosmayor
Chicago Public Schools last month changed how it reports COVID-19 cases at individual schools, but did not disclose it, leading parents to get an undercount of positive cases in the school their child attends. https://t.co/9Zhu4S9Ose
We know @GWHS_Patriots has amazing athletes. However, we still donโt have a home turf field or clean air for our athletes ๐ Our students thrive despite the obstacles you put in their path #StopGeneralIron#Turf4GW
