Student who I have a great relationship with (she transferred here from nyc and has big dreams) told me she’s about to turn 18 and was really looking forward to voting but now she won’t b/c she can’t support any of the candidates.
Occasionally as a teacher time seems to stop as I consider how to respond to things students say or ask. This was one.
I settled on the importance of down ballot races, local elections. And Im certain she wants to discuss presidential further.
