No words now. More later. #columbusstudentsdeserve #teachersofinstagram #teacherstrike I want to be in my classroom putting up posters and smelling freshly sharpened pencils, not waiting for a BOE to gaslight us at the bargaining table again. If you’re being compensated 300K+ a year, it should be required that you spend 400M to remove mold, lead paint, asbestos, fix leaks, install HVAC, hire substitutes, and TAKE CARE OF THE STUDENTS you’re being paid to take care of. Just sayin’. Never imagined I’d be starting a school year on the picket line but here we are. In one split second this morning, I realized I felt fully and completely happy, all the way down into my heart space. I had a cup of coffee, a pen, fresh paper, a text from a friend, and a little time to myself to write. “My feet will want to walk where you are sleeping, but my heart will go on living.”—Pablo Neruda What if I told you that making this reel was not on my list of to-dos today, and that instead, I felt drawn to record a YouTube video being utterly and totally vulnerable about this struggle—of not being enough? These girls are the best ❤️…for the last 35 years, anyway…
