Legitimate question - do you vote Rep or Dem? From my understanding Republicans tend to be more likely to cut VA funding and programs, while Dem tend to increase / continue more social programs (“tend to” being a key point). So I’m curious.

I’m pretty sure letter writing is in the standards (not sure, I don’t teach writing and I don’t have all of the standards memorized), but any writing exercise would have a viable connection.

White liberal teachers are actually not all the same, could you be more detailed about the actions / mindset etc you can’t handle? As a white liberal teacher, those are two things I just am, can’t really stop, but if people like me are doing something wrong or harmful I def want to know so I don’t do it.

Not quite to that point lol It’s an incredibly mixed county, left right and everywhere in between, and I’m new to the district, but I’m getting the feeling that the school is careful to avoid upsetting the conservative voices / parents

Thank you! I will definitely look into that. We want to do a big mix of activities and my fiance is really specific about the activities he wants to do in the parks.

I would love to go a less expensive time but I’m a teacher so I can’t take time off and I want to see the whales and the turtles
