“School never taught me that—“

Yes they did. You weren’t listening.

When states address teacher shortages by lowering the bar to become a teacher instead of making teaching a more sustainable and respected profession, we have a HUGE problem.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Teachers, please DO NOT follow up “I know I don’t get paid enough” with:

• “But I love my job.”
• “But the district doesn’t have the money. Times are tough.”
• “But I do it for the kids.”

You’re allowed to love your job, care about the kids, AND still expect to be paid fairly.

And yes…the money is there.

Happy ‘here comes the pizza’ day to all who celebrate

[PeachProof @PeachProof23]

We are witnessing the quiet collapse of the American education system in real-time, and almost nobody is talking about the endgame. 📉
​I just went down a rabbit hole of "teacher crash out" videos, and it’s haunting. We aren’t just losing "staff"—we are losing the heart of our communities. From being blamed for every student outburst to managing 30+ tiny humans with zero administrative support, the math simply doesn't add up anymore.
​During 2020, they were called heroes. In 2026, they are being treated like replaceable cogs in a broken machine.
​The scary part? When the last certified teacher walks out that door, what happens to your kids? We are heading toward a "zombie apocalypse" in the classroom where nobody is left to lead.
​This isn't just a "workplace issue." This is a national emergency.
​If you’re a teacher: What was your breaking point?
If you’re a parent: Are you seeing the shift?

.@MiamiOHSwimDive stole the show at tonight's men's basketball game.

Were they effective? Well, Central Michigan shot 57% from the FT line in the second half...😂

The mental gymnastics some of you people do is impressive.

Why have US test scores dropped since 2013, after decades of gains?

Smartphones/social-media is part, but @imkahloon offers a compelling complementary factor: a decreased willingness to hold students to high standards.

@PhilStacey_SN How many Beverly games have you covered like that one?

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Educators have ZERO control over any of these. 🤔👇

Stop placing ALL the blame on teachers and schools.
