@RachelLeishman AP Lit teacher here with 25 years experience. It's not any easier today. They still write 3 essays in 2 hours. Yes, they use a computer, but on lockdown. We just finished reading Beloved. Not an easy read for anybody. The level of discussion has not changed. They work hard.

@IvankaTrump You do realize Jefferson was saying this in denial of raping and impregnating a slave girl at Monticello - something that has been proven historicay that he actually did do. So, actually a fitting quote to send to your dad. Good job.

@RepAndyBiggsAZ You do know what Jesus said about this, don't you? Are y'all over the charade of pretending that you follow Jesus' teachings?

@dublin_dynasty @Kerrigan_ts @EruditeElf @thattubiekid @adambriggle There is no irreversible damage. That is not a fact. What part of "that's not a fact" do you not understand?

@markbayer @WholeFoods They should stop them at the door. You can't get into our stores without a mask. That's horrible. So careless with other people's lives. It's equal to driving drunk.

@laurenboebert Calling all of my math teacher friends - we need an intervention here.

@GarryGorman I love this so much. I love him. Please give him my congratulations and my love.

@markbayer @RepStefanik If 400,000 a year is middle class, than a teachers we are really low class in so many ways!

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@SSanchezMISD He is a true legacy.

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@GarryGorman That's adorable!

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@kaarmbruster14 @sdspaulding No surprise there! MHS is very lucky.

@artemislynne @OccamsRazor423 @oneunderscore__ I wish he could be jailed but it's a civil trial. He could be jailed if he defies judges orders but this is a civil trial so it's about money.

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@markbayer @jonkimball @neelambohratx Me too!!!!
Such an important piece. Do proud of her.

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@markbayer I could watch that over and over

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@ArtichokesR @MrN_Primary I'm in Texas so the system is very different.

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@ArtichokesR @MrN_Primary Where do you teach that you have to teach 44 years to get a pension? That's terrible.

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@ed_assist @s2y2 @MrsTeacher2you Technically, no, but I figure at 61 and still teaching after the pandemic and then whatever you call last year - I've earned it

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@s2y2 @MrsTeacher2you Yup, housekeeper comes while we're gone so it's super clean when we get home.

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@markbayer I hate that when it happens. We were at an out of state wedding and the people at our table said - we love your governor. I, of course, had to say - you can have him. I think that was nice enough.

[Amy Smith @AEliSmith]

@markbayer They love those 10 Commandments. What about the Beatitudes? Pretty sure they're scared of those.
