I’ve seen teachers working LATE after school. Teachers who stay after to support kids. Teachers who make sure kids have clean clothes. Teachers who buy kids books. Teachers who bring it 110% every single day of the school year & beyond.
Teachers need champions. Lift. Them. Up.

There is no better way to learn than with a highly skilled teacher. So peeps, remove the resources, packages, textbooks and eprograms that constrict great learning and permit effective teaching practice.
Kindergarten teacher to class: “Does anyone have any questions?”
24 kids raise their hands.
Kindergarten teacher: “A question is when you need more information. If you want to tell me something about yourself, there will be time for that later.”
24 kids put their hands down.
