Teaching might the only job where it’s more difficult for teachers to take the day off than showing up….thanks to the meticulous lesson plans and preparation needed for all possible scenarios.

Questioning whether I quit or not. #earlycareerteacher #burnout

[The Modest Teacher @ModestTeacher]

What “era” of your teaching career are you in currently?

[Colton Morton @mortonco21]

@nwlocal Student-teachers and early career teachers certainly need to be heard, seen, and celebrated for their work. Thank you for doing this!

[League of Women Voters of Ohio @lwvohio]

Thank you Ohio voters, election workers, and volunteers for another election season- we are so grateful to each and every one of you. This is what democracy looks like💜

[Nicholas Emmanuele @NAEmmanuele]

@Sayantani16 I have also felt I'm navigating the line between "buckle down and let's work" and "how is your mental health" differently now. I don't want to put undue pressure or cause stress, but I also want students to be able to get work done when needed. The line is shifting and it's hard.

[Samantha Stearns @MsStearns54]

@NAEmmanuele Yes 1000x over the past two years. I think it’s a complex issue exacerbated by skill deficits that aren’t being addressed in the rush to return to “normal” and teachers being ill-equipped to address the collective issues of “post pandemic” disengagement.

[Ohio Council for the Social Studies @OhioCouncilSS]

Thank you Rep. Mary Lightbody for speaking for OCSS today but also for championing quality social studies education every day in Ohio #OCSS2023 @MaryLightbody

Freedom is officially on the ballot this November.

Vote YES on Issue 1 to protect the right to make healthcare decisions for ourselves.

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

Powerful! 🧡

It’s time.

Apparently, many teachers are sufferers of a condition called ‘High Functioning Anxiety’. Below are the symptoms. Thoughts?

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

OHIO: It’s up to YOU to stand together at the polls TODAY. Vote “NO” on Issue 1 and fight back against Republican attempts to undermine democracy and ignore the will of the people because they want to continue to restrict women’s reproductive rights.

[U.S. Department of Education @usedgov]

When schools provide mental health support for students:

📚 Academic outcomes improve
⬇️ Discipline referrals are reduced
🧑‍🎓 Both attendance & graduation rates increase

Here's how schools can support students' mental well-being: https://t.co/JvTdA0BBbP #MentalHealthMonth

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

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.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Teacher:
Plans a great hands-on, fun lesson!

Student:
Slept for 2 hours the night prior because they’re addicted to TikTok

Administrator:
Comes in and notices uninterested, tired student and comments ‘’What do you think you can do for that student to make them more interested?”

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

All teachers in this country should be paid at least $60,000.

NEW: The IRS targeted low-income wage earners for audits vastly more than other American taxpayers in 2022. They were audited at a rate 5.5x higher than people in virtually every other tax bracket, per a new Syracuse University analysis.

The second anniversary of the assault on the U.S. Capitol reminds us that it’s critical to help young people understand, contextualize and counter manipulative and harmful disinformation. This article provides a model to counter extremism.

I wish I could revel more in the absolute drama of the GOP both in the US & Ohio Houses having…issues…w their Speaker elections today, but I’m still stuck on how Ohio elected Reps to both institutions under unconstitutionally gerrymandered maps & how little attn that gets 🫠
