@voltronic we're tired of BS and the huge disconnect between theory and practice
Can't imagine why...
@voltronic wait until they find out what's up with nurses....
@voltronic I reiterate my suggestion to give signing bonuses to teachers instead of professional athletes.
@JGNWYRK
There are places that do that already, in rough inner city districts. But they are only maybe $5k from what I've seen in recent years.
That's not really the problem though. It's the worsening working conditions, organized right-wing wingnuts running for school board, legislators restricting what can be taught, etc.
@voltronic Unsurprising. Now I'm off to a PD because no one else was willing, then an IEP meeting. Fun!
@voltronic incredibly unsurprising. i hope folks take the wake-up call
