@TriCountyCoop We don’t understand why y’all are showing no outages in our area when we’ve reported it SEVERAL time by app and phone. So this is me “reporting an outage.”

[Amy Watson @WatsonFarmhouse]

@colec0603 @usedgov @POTUS I agree

[Amy Watson @WatsonFarmhouse]

@TriCountyCoop we’ve been without power since 5am and haven’t heard any updates. We’ve called & gone on your app. Do you have any updates on when we can expect power back on?

@DrBradJohnson They really did a disservice when they got rid of play-based centers in Kindergarten like blocks, kitchen areas, water/sand tables, dress-up, & dramatic play. Those activities weren’t “just play.” They helped children develop social skills, problem-solving, creativity, & language

@EDSecMcMahon @usedgov 1) How would you know anything about best practices in education? I HIGHLY doubt you’ve ever taken a class or training. 2) States already run education. Always baffles me that the people who make all the decisions for edu have NEVER held a teaching cert

@LoudOutside I taught kindergarten for 12 years. NO WAY these are kindergarten kids. They look like they’re 4 years old. Second, she’s keeping those babies safe. 8 kids for two adults=not enough hands. Some of yal out there need to calm way down. I’d be happy if my kid was with them.

Motivation...

@MrDanielBuck My last AP actually had the nerve to say this to us during a PD.

Dear Parents—your child doesn’t need to be the smartest in the class, the best on the field, or the most talented in the room.
But they do need to be teachable.

We’ve raised a generation that can Google every answer, but too many are forgetting how to listen, respect, and learn.
Being teachable isn’t about grades or intelligence—it’s about humility. It’s about realizing you don’t know everything and being willing to grow when someone tries to help you.

As parents, we don’t need to raise perfect kids.
We need to raise kids who can take feedback without falling apart.
Who can apologize.
Who can show respect even when they disagree.
Who can be corrected without becoming combative.

Because teachability will take them further than talent ever will.

CHALLENGES THEY WANT TEACHERS TO IGNORE

•Class Size

•Student lacking sleep, physical exercise & proper nutrition

•Parents NOT teaching discipline & respect

•Thinking schools should be the solution to EVERY challenge students face

•Low pay

•Awful student behavior

[Amy Watson @WatsonFarmhouse]

@Lifeblood_6 @MathCurmudgeon @educator4ever36 Then by your thinking teachers are our own bosses because we also pay taxes.
