My principals always make time to answer any questions I have and support me. What an upgrade it is to not constantly be treated like I'm an inconvenience or a bother.

Thanks for sharing.

Newsflash: teachers can’t run 1-1 therapy sessions in mainstream classrooms after every behaviour incident AND still teach stuff.

[Ms. C @beketchai]

Nope. Never. Ever. I'll bag groceries before I teach summer school.

If I were hiring a high school English teacher, one of the top criteria I would look for would be that they are a reader.

The parents of seniors who are trying to figure out what they are doing after graduation are starting to see the natural consequences of not parenting until the end.

You can’t stop parenting when your kids are 14 and expect everything to be ok.

I feel bad for the kids.

What is it going to take to get presenters to always use a microphone? Those who struggle with hearing, anxiety, or ADHD have trouble focusing on/hearing you when you’re speaking. A microphone is a huge help for those with disabilities, disorders, and neurodivergencies.

[Kelly Fjelstrom @queenswede]

Yes!

If schools don’t sweat the small stuff — litter, noise in hallways, tardies — it provides permission for bigger stuff.

I told my mom I thought parenting got easier as the kids get older and she laughed so hard she cried a little

Sometimes being a superhero looks like just making it through the day.

No more, no less.

When a teacher posts about the unrelenting exhaustion we are experiencing it doesn’t mean they don’t like teaching, don’t like their students, or that they have terrible admin. It could just mean that the weight of everything over the last few years is exhausting without healing.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Sometimes… kids are just trying to make it through their day. Teachers need to understand this.
