People are always asking me how can they help and what are our needs. One of our biggest needs is resources to support, incentive, and love on our teachers. Our teachers are the lifeblood of our school. Help us show them love by donating a few dollars. aueahs.givebacks.com/store/i…

Is anyone else thinking we are starting to see the impact of 2 years of disruption and time at home, due to COVID 19, in schools? Extreme behaviours? Some pupils very emotional and struggling to regulate? Low attendance compared to normal? Winter bugs hitting hard?

Trauma did NOT make you stronger.
It changed the structure and function of your brain, put you at risk for hormone imbalance + chronic pain, made it hard to discern between calm + chaos.
Let’s not glorify trauma.
Let’s GET REAL about healing:
It. Is. Possible.

Some educators are the “cool teacher” simply because they are naturally cool people. Their ability to connect well with students is not fake, forced, or phony, it’s just them.

Nobody seems to care about teacher trauma/chronic PTSD we have as a result of what we see and hear and endure in the classroom on a daily basis. At least, not enough to do something about it...

Please share so we can find a few more talented educators who are ready to help us grow our programs! There are so many opportunities within our Arts Magnet—could you be the one to take our students to the next level? ❤️💙

We’ve reached the point on the school year where I’m sick of the children and also realizing that I’ll miss them.

Being a teacher at this time of the year is like being an NCAA tournament basketball team. Every class period I feel like a 15 seed just trying to "surive and advance" to the next period and making it to the end of the day is like winning the whole thing.

THREAD. A rare thing is happening today: we are about to get a window into the secret world of how cops shape the news. There's a hearing this afternoon into how San Francisco cops manipulate the media through “strategic communications.” The internal documents are shocking.

School Admin,
The best teachers in the building don't want to be "left alone". The best teachers want you in their classroom, they want feedback, and they want to be affirmed and encouraged!

It's so wild going to ESPN and seeing an article about the world's most confident soccer player right beside an article about Ronaldo. (I'm talking to you, @EsloniH) @austin_boys
