So often, educators are told to “just focus on the positive” as it relates to the day-to-day happenings in schools. While I’m all about positivity, we can’t just gaslight teachers, neglecting the very real inequities & unrealistic expectations that have been placed on them.

I would love to see a panel of teachers and students share their thoughts and experiences over the last two years instead of people who get paid to have opinions. Don’t just talk about teachers, please interview them.

Metacognition isn’t a matter of a ‘lesson,’ or a teacher telling students it’s something they should do. Rather, it’s a matter of habit. Habits are everything. So, below are 15 questions to help students respond to new ideas. bit.ly/2BvgJTP

They can’t possibly have educators’ best interests at heart when they required a social media backlash to add more teachers to a task force about teachers.

This week is teacher appreciation week. How can you show appreciation ? How about all year long for starters. Teachers pour their heart and soul into their students. Let’s pour ours into educators. It’s free. And easy. If you have heart & soul.❤️

These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way

To all educators across the state, you are the only state employees not getting a raise, our state values you less than school choice vouchers. Please see this letter from Ken King regarding efforts in the house. Greg Abbott promised to fully fund public schools.He failed

Shameful the state sits on a $33 B surplus, not including rainy day fund, and fails to fund #txed. My starting teacher salary in 2002, adjusted for inflation, equates to the same as my district's 2023 starting salary. It's easy to see and understand why educators are leaving

I for one am getting very tired of you accusing all schools for pushing any agenda. Our students say the pledge, our teachers teach the TEKS, we celebrate succeed and deal with hardship. How about you respecting us enough to take care of our employees and students! Greg Abbott

US Census Bureau shows TX public schools rank 39th in total education funding ($4,215 below the national average) & 48th in state funding for education (3,706 below the national average). We can’t claim to care about TX without caring for Texas children.
