Even if *the only* things teachers were asking for was a moderately higher salary (it’s not)- like bro we’re paying $14 for a bag of grapes and teachers are buying their own dry erase markers and your kid just sneezed in their mouth - I think it’s fair.
@StFrancisRCSD showed up in a big way for @TerryFoxCanada this year! We surpassed our goal of $650 and raised $1008. A big thank you to @rubrecht73 for being a good sport and to all the teachers for doing the #griddy if we reached our goal!
Today @MaeganGiroux taught us about ideas and details! We had lots of fun finding the details in one of our favourite books and writing what the book would look like without them. We all agreed, the version with details is much better!!
If you listened closely enough today, around 3:30 pm, you might have heard a collective sigh. Wishing everyone—but especially those who have been making the magic happen in our schools—a happy and restful #FamilyDay weekend. And 🙏 some time for self care next week #sasked ♥️
Our teachers are exhausted. They continue to show up for our children no matter how many obstacles are thrown their way – uncertainty, high risk environments, emotionally dysregulated kids and parents. It’s a burnout like I’ve never seen in all my days.
