Good morning educators. We respect you.

Managing your mental health starts with saying NO and ends with changing policies for systematic change.

If a teacher covers a class during their planning period, they should be compensated.

What we’re collectively seeing is the American educational system crumbling. The only way to fix it will be to pay teachers substantially more and improve work conditions.

As school districts plan their calendars for 2022, they must be mindful that teachers/students have experienced trauma. There’s not enough planning time that can address that. Ask what mental health supports you can put in immediately?

This what we needed right now. 💙

This week we held two trainings for over 600 teachers in two separate states and the collective feedback is… Like for real. This is too much.

So thankful for presenters like @emilyflemingyoga who help us deliver professional learning across the country. We’re sad we can’t be in person right now but we’re manifesting for COVID to be GONE! #teachermentalhealth #teacherselfcareconference #teacherselfcare

"Every child deserves a champion, an adult who will never give up on them. Is this job tough? You betcha. But it is not impossible. We're educators. We're born to make a difference." Watch Rita Pierson's full TED Talk here: t.ted.com/JsDYAud

Senate Bill 140, targeting transgender young Georgians' access to HRT and crimunalizing doctors who serve them, is up for a vote in the State Senate right now. It has already passed the house. We're watching from the gallery with dozens of students at the capitol today.
