@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars Just because a socialist group stands with teachers does not make teachers socialists. My invitation to visit my mom-socialist classroom stands. Have a great day 😊
@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars I see that attempting to open your mind is a lost cause as you have only chosen photos that support your view point. Our rally was to improve schools to make better use of your tax dollars to give you, your children, and your grand children a better future.
@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars I did not as there was not a protest. I did, however, join my colleagues outside of our legislative building to fulfill a duty that I must legally be evaluated on: advocating for change in policies and practices. I’m attaching for you again 😊
@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars So, Ms. Lang, thank you for expressing your concerns. I would sincerely love to have you as a guest in my classroom for a full day, or even part of one. The portion of my job description that I am, in fact, getting paid to do, is attached below for your reference.
@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars I have students in my classroom who come from families with parents working 4-5 jobs but make too much to qualify for Medicaid but too little to afford private insurance. Why is it ok for a 13 year old child with a broken arm to not be covered by insurance?
@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars ...your surgeon for their bachelors degree in biology. Teachers hired after 2021 will not receive that GREAT government pension or health care for life. I’m sure you wouldn’t accept a full time job that required a bachelors degree if it didn’t come with retirement benefits.
@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars ...do not get paid for them if they were earned after 2013. Shouldn’t we want our teachers to have the best education possible? I mean, after all, we are building the future. You should want us to know as much as we can about our field of expertise. That’s like only paying...
@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars ...how would you react? Our counselors have case loads nearing 400 and cannot give them the services they need. Why? We lack funding. Our psychologists have case loads over 1,000 and cannot provide the services they need. Why? Lack of funding. Teachers with higher degrees...
@JillLang@nckhui@ncae@CMMSCougars ...and practices affecting student learning. If my students get sick on a Wednesday, there’s no nurse to send them to. In fact, we only have a nurse once per week, and that is not acceptable. If your child was seriously sick at school and there was no nurse to care for them...
Kicking off one of my favorite units with one of my favorite labs. Demonstrating how quickly disease can spread through contact. One student had “infected” water at the beginning. How many will be infected at the end? @CMMSCougars#WeAreCarroll#TeamKidsFirst
The kids in our after school program continue to amaze me. I am so proud of every single one of them every single day and so beyond grateful to have @CreateSomeDrama as a part of my life. This program is worth the 13 hour days.
A quick photo right before this AMAZING student went onstage to perform her role of "The Creepy Lady" who has been lost in the woods for 200+ days & just wants to find the trail... Thrilled to announce - she received an Excellence in Acting award for her portrayal! #TeamKidsFirst
