@MegStEsprit @coldbean Like wrap sharpened pencils in money if you feel better with that but plz money. Undoubtedly your child’s teacher has spent their own personal money on your child this year and will again.

From fb: The new Brown Derby on Tulane and Norman C Francis has power, water, fully stocked shelves, hot food, and an ice machine (no bagged ice, you have to bring your own container). Cash only, but they have a working ATM. No gas.

this for a state that won't give teachers a raise or feed the children in danger today. all of this was preventable. both nops and my network are at fault today. we know infrastructure sucks, but god forbid we cancel a day of school 3 weeks out from state testing.

parents and teachers left in impossible situations. how many impossible choices have we had to face in the last five years? I've been teaching here for 10 years, hopefully will do many more, but i'm sick of ppl passing the buck and not feeling the fall out. idk, i'm over it.

I just really don’t have much patience at this point for people outside of the daily classroom to tell me in person learning is so important as if I have no idea. As if I’m not in agreement. I just see the whole fucking picture and so many do not. The macro impact on the micro.

@SofieHagen @SophiaCK The only thing is I think white ppl do have a responsibility to call out racism they hear at the holidays from fam. (I guess this extends to all privilege) doesn’t mean you have to try to convince them—just make sure they know it’s fucked up

had to move my car mid day, getting soaked up to the knee. couldn't get back to my house until three hours later. colleagues live in slidell and didn't know the state of their own homes. ppl had to bring their young children to school b/c closures, then got stuck in flood waters.

When I tell you that teachers KNOW the importance of in person learning, we fuxking know. Daily. Importance for emotional and academic. We KNOW. My heard both broke and soared in that moment. However, teachers also know the fucking impact..

When I showed the box to the kids, one said, “no way! Is this the thing we did in kindergarten? With these baby in it and you get to bring a cake if you get it?” Followed ni a bunch of “oh yeah!” I’m a 3rd grade teacher. The last time my kids got to do king cake with friends…
