It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.

While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change.

And they’re right.

Teacher:
•provides appropriate assignments
•provides rubrics
•accepts late work
•offers retakes
•quick feedback
•leaves parents several messages

Kid: 😜

Parent: Why is my kid failing?

Admin: Lets have a parent meeting. Also, provide the kid with all the missing work.

[Dante Comparetto @DanteComparetto]

@1og_zay Lol, you’re not kidding. Actually, I love my students and I love being their teacher/mentor/social worker. However, there is also a new administration and it definitely feels like I am working in a charter school. I am not thrilled about that.

I’m having one of those days in which I wonder if another Master’s degree would solve all of my problems, because the last Master’s degree fell short of the mark.

The dark night of the soul happens when we wake up from sleepwalking through life. We stop living out our autopilot programming.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Teacher: I feel so exhausted all the time.

Central Office: Have you tried yoga or running or meditation.

Let’s stop telling teachers to do yoga and meditate (UNLESS that’s what they want and choose to do).
Instead, let’s advocate for making teaching a sustainable career!

Proud to be a day 1 donor to @Janeese4DC re-election campaign. She has been a champion for our schools and students, willing to do what is RIGHT when it counts, even when it is hard. The rest of the council could stand to learn a LOT from her. Join me: https://t.co/UcupGefTCV

The idea that more police will solve violence in DC is magical thinking. DC is the most policed city per capita in the US.

If quantity of police equaled safety, we'd be the safest city. We're not.

Crime stems from endemic poverty & systemic oppression. Cops can't fix that.

Thank you @RepJayapal for your commitment to DC autonomy.

Thank you @RepSummerLee for defending DC home rule!

"DC residents have been petitioning for voting representation in Congress for over 200 years. Instead of acting on that, this Republican-led Congress has taken every chance to strike down the will of the people." #HandsOffDC

This high school dropout just got his second masters degree!

Excited to be starting my new journey as a social studies teacher at Ballou High School!

[Dante Comparetto @DanteComparetto]

Passed all my praxis exams, good grades on my edTPA portfolio, one more week as a student teacher, one more week at American University and about to become a licensed social studies teacher!

Saw this quote and really LOVED it! What are your thoughts? #ITeachMath #teachertwitter

Too many of my students face the reality of gun violence every day. For this reason we joined the Stand for a Safer Tomorrow rally. It was an honor to meet David Hogg, a gifted leader of our time.
