Having just been diagnosed with lung cancer, this isn’t what I want to hear. Trump and his fucked up sycophants have got to be voted out. Midterms are coming folks, let’s do this!
Two teachers can teach the exact same lesson and get completely different results. The variable? The teachers’ passion and creativity.
The power is not in the program. The power is in the magic the teacher brings.

The growth in K-12 administrative staff are FAR outpacing teacher hiring.
The number of district administrators in U.S. public schools has grown 87.6% between 2000-2019 compared to student growth at 7.6% and teacher growth at 8.7%.
Why is this happening?
Standardized testing is nothing more than corporate money scams that labels poor and minority kids as failures and pretends that it’s their school’s fault. 🧵 1 of 10
Teachers don't leave because it's hard. Teachers are some of the hardest working professionals I know. They leave because the amount of work no longer is comparable to pay, respect, support, and value that they deserve for the workload.
Teachers shouldn't have to cover classes, give up planning time, work 20 extra hours a week, do extra tasks, etc. just to be considered effective or all in. Teachers give above and beyond already without it becoming the expectation. It's why there is a huge teacher shortage!
