Nobody talks about the student who came ready to learn, sat through the disruption, said nothing, and fell further behind while every adult in the building focused on the one who made the most noise. She is still waiting for someone to notice she was there, too.

@notheydontcare Not always true. In districts that use “mastery” as the goal & allow retakes, kids can earn As and still fail a state test b/c there is no “retake” available.

@jenteach13 Let them fail. They learn so much more from disappointment than can be taught through success!!

@ClarkHistoryPol @Reesau_ I predict it was Lorne’s last show. Paul is his favorite musician & the songs played more like a tribute to me.

@sunisezhova You would be correct.

D1. D2. D3. NAIA. JUCO.
Same sacrifice. Same grind.
Same chance to change your life.
The level isn’t the blessing.
The opportunity is.
Don’t complain about a seat at a table that most never touch.

@Ollyskay @BasilTheGreat Watch her eyes.

@JohnUtAh2016 @KirkSeriousFace Also, many staff members live in towns outside the district (can’t afford Plano prices on a teacher’s salary), so staffing is a concern.

@JasonKelce @jasonkelce teachers are allowed to manage 30+ students but have no real authority over the thermostat in the classroom. You know what high school boys smell
like after PE… 😉😂
