I don’t like the term “teacher shortage” because there really isn’t a shortage of people who want to teach, there’s just a shortage of people willing to spend 70% of their instruction time on classroom management saying “You guys… you guys!!!” 500 times a day for $42,000 a year

[Brian Tolentino M.Ed @TolentinoTeach]

There is a belief that teachers should handle student disrespect with angelic patience. 

Wrong.

Respect is a two-way street, and teachers deserve dignity, not endless tolerance for bad behavior.

Limiting school suspensions is not the answer.

When people argue that suspensions “don’t help the student who misbehaves,” they often forget about the students who are there to learn.

Negative behavior impacts the entire class, not just the one student causing the disruption.

Nobody talks about what it costs a school when a good teacher walks out the door for good. The kids lose the relationship. The department loses the institutional knowledge. The next hire starts from zero. And everyone pretends that's just how it goes.

[Jen @jenteach13]

You want to fix education?

Restore consequences.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

If consistent disruptive behavior isn’t addressed by administration, what message does that send to the rest of the class?

Students learn just as much from what we tolerate as from what we teach.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

If you think teachers have it easy, you’re in luck. America is currently short more than 400,000 teachers. Give it a try! 😏

Or give subbing a try…to get a taste.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

We’ve created a school system where the students who follow the rules get the least attention… because all the energy goes into managing the ones who don’t.

[Brian Tolentino M.Ed @TolentinoTeach]

Our growing tolerance for misbehavior is driving great teachers out of the profession.

@nickimoraa I’ll dress like a professional once they pay me like a professional.

If you’re bombing a country

And the citizens of that country are celebrating

You’re doing the right thing

[Daniel Buck, “Youngest Old Man in Ed Reform” @MrDanielBuck]

You know who LOVES discipline in schools?

The 25 other kids in a classroom who AREN'T cussing out their teacher, want to learn, and want the misbehaving kid kicked out of class

I don’t know who needs to hear this but if you talk on speakerphone in public everyone around you hates you.

If the shooting was at a synagogue, anti-Semitism would be blamed.

If the shooting was at a mosque, Islamophobia would be blamed.

But because the shooting was at a Christian school, it's the "guns".

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

If one immigrates to any given country, they must respect the laws and culture of that country and contribute to that country to the best of their ability, doing no harm.

That applies to ALL countries.

[JD Vance @JDVance]

It is shocking to me that so many left wing politicians attack the idea of prayer in response to a tragedy.

Literally no one thinks prayer is a substitute for action.

We pray because our hearts are broken and we believe that God is listening.

When you “affirm” mental illness instead of treating it, people get hurt.

If you’re angry that Trump took out Irans nuclear facilities… Blame Obama, he paid for them with American taxpayer dollars.
