20-25% of teachers will work a second or third job over the holiday break to make ends meet. Teacher salaries don't even keep up with inflation, which means less money every year.
BREAKING: Gen Z and young Millennials under 30 voted at such a high level and skewed for Dems so much we canceled out every voter over age 65 across the US house races.
When you hear students speaking highly of a colleague, please go directly to the teacher and tell them all about it. Email. Text. Whatever. It happens all the time. Don't waste it.
If you are applying for student loan debt relief, you should know that Republicans are now suing the Biden administration to try to stop you from getting that relief.
Only one party is working to help you—your vote matters in this midterm election.
Dear women: 96% of Republicans voted against your legal right to have access to contraceptives and want to pass a national abortion ban. The midterms are in 23 days.
SO THE REASON TEACHERS ARE SO UNDERPAID IS BECAUSE 76% OF TEACHERS ARE WOMEN AND SOCIETY DOES NOT VALUE THE WORK OF WOMEN, WHICH IS ALSO WHY MANY MALE TEACHERS BECOME ADMIN. IRONICALLY, 76% OF SUPERINTENDENTS ARE MEN BECAUSE MEN MAKE UP THE MAJORITY OF ADMIN.
When someone says that “teachers should just shut up and teach,” it only reveals that:
- they have NO CLUE what teachers actually do every day.
- if all teachers had to do was teach, there would not be a teacher exodus.
- they lack every quality needed to be a teacher.
STOP bashing the hell out of the teaching profession. ENOUGH! We are STRONG and love kids! Cultivate future teachers and school leaders. NO MORE propaganda or negativity. If TROLLS want to kill this post, go find another fire hydrant to piss on!
When teachers say that leaving teaching is “the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do”— believe them, because it is.
Why? Because when a teacher quits or resigns— you may see it as someone leaving a job, but we see it as letting down our students and their families.
If you hate the idea of having to wear a mask on an airplane against your will, wait until you hear about having to carry an unwanted pregnancy inside your body on an airplane against your will.
