Perplexing when people compare their own careers to teaching to dissuade salary increases for teachers. Try dealing with everything you are dealing with at work then attempt to do it while managing 20-40-120 children at the same time.

Teachers, Principals, Directors, Superintendents, Board Members, Parents

No matter your salary, education, or what side of the desk you are, how you treat people ultimately tells all.

The NEA and its 3 million members proudly rise in solidarity with @UAW. UAW members are our neighbors, the family members and parents of our students, and fellow workers. They deserve a fair contract. Period.

@TiffanyNews3LV @News3LV So admin got their raises. Support staff received raises. But teachers will require arbitration and probably 6-9 months to get paid. Seems about right.

Before we give another standardized test this year, every member of the house and senate should be required to take an 8th grade standardized test and let's see how they perform first.

We’re back at the table, and educators are standing strong to ensure we get the contract we deserve and that every student has a licensed teacher in their classroom! #CCEAStrong

There are an uncomfortable amount of similarities between public schools and prisons.

@octorom @JessicaBartnick @FixingEducation Oh it does suck. The establishment has relied for too long on intimidation and retaliatory tactics toward teachers who didn't conform to the whims of poor leadership in education. Then teachers are scolded by the public for not "putting children first" when we advocate.

[EducationPatron @EducationP101]

@octorom @JessicaBartnick @FixingEducation What's ridiculous is that the United States government spends billions of tax-payer dollars annually to bail out banks, corporations, and other countries yet people in our own country disparage teachers for demanding safe working conditions and adequate compensation.

[EducationPatron @EducationP101]

@octorom @JessicaBartnick @FixingEducation Public schools and the public can no longer rely on underpaid female labor. At one time teaching offered something unique and special to people who were drawn to a career where family could also be prioritized. Schools don't have another 2 decades to "figure it out."

Women now have more career options.

Is that why they are leaving the teaching profession? #K12BigIdeas https://t.co/NBjRsHaHfB

Here is my school photo from kindergarten @GalltKelley and @TonySandersSupt. My smile is dimmed because I had lost my mother to a drunk driver 6 months before. The love & attention my teacher Mrs. Rounthwaite showed me that year was life-changing. I ❤️her forever. #ThankATeacher
