I know this thread hit a nerve. There are teachers using faux profiles and commenting on several threads on my page. Go off teachers. Go off then...

We warned everyone that this was coming. Requiring this training over a five year period with a standardized test carries a hefty price tag for teachers. Most districts will not pay for this training or the test.

“Teachers are now required to complete 80 hours of professional development on concepts of the science of reading, plus a written exam. And without it, an educator cannot renew their teaching license.”

@scrollTherapy2 @TRIGGERHAPPYV1 That is what they get. They are wearing over $2,000 in hair, nails, and eyelashes. Yet, they skipped out on a bill. This is trifling. They are lucky they did not get arrested. Get it together. SMH...

19. I will never understand why people tell new academics to take positions in cities where the cost of living is a studio apartment for $3,500. There are academics who negotiate with institutions to use relocation money to pay for the first 3 months of their rent upfront.

If you support teachers, please follow the #LoriLockout hashtag to get the real story from real teachers. I attended 3 Chicago Public Schools. My family always supported the Chicago Teacher Strike for a reason. This is why... CTU care about our babies...

I am tired of watching racists gun down Black people on video. Get sympathy via a fake diagnosis of mental illness. Get defense teams no one in the hood could ever afford. Get called children when they are 18 and up.

Check on your children. We had a situation in our family where 2 of the children saw the attack of the teacher at school. They went to the next period and cussed their teachers out and put their feet up on a desk. When they got home...
