A pleasant find online.
I just came across this photo online by surprise. Thank you for the kind words below the photo, OutspokenPVD. There’s a poetic renaissance in Providence. Be a part of it. #OutspokenPVD @only_hughman @LHughesCPR @litartsri @HeyRhody @CityofProv

This is extremely disturbing. We MUST improve what is causing this mass exodus. REAL discussions are needed.
In 2018, more teachers left the profession than any other year prior. A year later, 2019, that number was surpassed. In 2020, that record was again surpassed. In 2021, AGAIN. It’s rarely spoken of as the emergency it is. Teaching is simply an unsustainable career for many.
