At a time when schools are desperately and diligently trying to attract and retain quality teachers, Hoosiers are concerned about the last decade of Republican policy. buff.ly/43hNMHx

2. Have fun. Every day. I’ve had enough friends pass away too young to know that nothing is promised. Enjoy the moment. 3. Tell people you love them. Often. Even if you feel awkward. Your love is worth sharing.

It is when we think that our tears, our questions, or our grief are not spiritual enough or tidy enough to bring to God that a chasm begins. The opposite is true. Jesus was “The Man of Sorrows,” well-acquainted with grief. He understands.

Will you fight #censorship in our #publicschools? #Bookbanning has no place in our public spaces. The irony is not lost on me that #BannedBooksWeek begins & #TheHandmaidsTale is banned from my child’s 12th gr dual-credit Eng class. Every signature helps. chng.it/njM6hm6sCp

The new supt of Garrett-Keyser-Butler CSD has banned a book from my child’s 12th gr lit class. Ironically, today begins #BannedBooksWeek, a national initiative to bring awareness to the issue of #censorship in our country. Would you sign my petition? chng.it/njM6hm6sCp

🎄💍Madeline (madbutmarried arc in progress)💍🎄 Trauma-informed practice isn't about providing therapy services, it's teaching in ways that nurture and support social emotional and academic growth, especially to those who may be triggered by the inherently harsh & institutional nature of traditional schooling.

@ascifiwriter There’s no way to choose just one The Glass Castle. The Giver. The Hunger Games. The Things They Carried.

When I taught HS we used to ask what the MS teachers were doing with their time Now that I teach MS I know. Surviving. That’s what MS teachers are doing It’s all a mess, y’all. Everyone is doing their level best to get some educating accomplished. Just back off the blame game

Mission accomplished. #bannedbooksweek #thehandmaidstale kpcnews.com/thestar/articl…

I see people saying “why should we give free lunches to schoolchildren?” and I think some folks truly have no idea what it’s like to grow up in poverty, never knowing where your next meal is coming from, forever being one paycheck away from eviction. Let me explain some things.

If you think teachers have it easy, you’re in luck. America is currently short more than 320,000 teachers. Give it a try! 😏

You can end the workday and come back the next morning and pick up where you left off in most jobs. You can't just show up and teach in the morning without spending time outside of work hours preparing for the day. This has been normalized as a profession, and it can't go on.

When will enough be enough? Demeaning people. Giving a blow job to a microphone. He’s literally sick. If you are planning on/considering voting for Trump, please watch this video from his recent rally. Is this the example we want for our children? He’s an embarrassment to the USA

Elon Musk tells an AfD rally in Germany: "I think there is too much focus on past guilt (in Germany), and we need to move beyond that. Children should not feel guilty for the sins of their parents - their great grandparents even"

If our Christianity causes kids to go hungry, the sick to go without healthcare, the stranger to be unwelcome, the needy to be called “parasites,” all while billionaires get richer, we’ve profoundly misunderstood the most basic elements of Jesus’ teachings.
