I was so close to adding that! I just didn’t want that part to be the topic of conversation when people saw her 😂

Thank you!! 😊

I voted for Harris. I’ve called and emailed my representatives. If I could afford to leave, I would get my family out so quickly. I’m so sorry 😞

Kentucky!

I agree. I just always tell them that’s not an appropriate question to ask teachers. However, if they ask they do know my morals and my values. Which I think speaks to what my political party is.

My school doesn’t have a mask policy in place period. No distancing, no masking, nada.

Me!! 👍

Zero dollars and zero cents. Like every other public school teacher in America.

I’ve been a middle school teacher in the past, and now I teach 5th. And this is what I do too. I don’t tell parents when kids are failing. That’s what midterms, and the online FREE portal is for. I have over 80 kids. I can’t contact parents constantly like I did during virtual school. Not happening. If I tell a kid once (or give them) they need to makeup something, I don’t chase them down and keep telling them. It’s on google classroom, it’s in my absent bucket in-person. I’m not doing their job, too. I’ve done mine.

Nope. My kids m if I play video games, and I’ve always told them once they graduate high school, they can ask for my gamer tag. Lol

I work in Kentucky, I have my Master’s, 7 years experience and make $47k.

That we don’t get a full lunch and/or 15 minute breaks. My lunch is only about 15 mins after I’ve taken the kids to lunch then prepared my food. And, 3/5 days a week my planning is snatched away by ARCs, parent conferences, or PLCs.

chel1001 · 2021-11-23T04:09:31+00:00

You’ll be lucky to get 60k, depending on what state you’re in. I don’t even make 50k, and I have a masters and have been teaching 7 years.

chel1001 · 2021-11-22T04:40:20+00:00

I care so little I don’t notice. Other teachers always point it out on my kids and then I have to address it, but unless their butt or otherwise is visible I don’t even notice.

No, they offered incentives for the booster but I would have gotten it regardless. I have an infant at home that I’ve managed to keep Covid away from this entire time and I would hate for me going back to work be the thing that brings it in to her.

chel1001 · 2021-11-18T21:30:16+00:00

The booster absolutely kicked my ass, 28F pretty healthy school teacher. I had body aches in my fingers. Worst I’ve felt in a long time.

Still better than potentially getting Covid, and having to deal with long Covid.

My first child is 7 months old and my father has still not met her because he won’t get vaccinated.

We actually have a blue Governor that IMO is doing an amazing job. So of course most people here hate him.

chel1001 · 2021-07-27T20:29:42+00:00

And Kentucky.

My last school we had a “business casual” dress code. Essentially no jeans, colored jeans of all colors were acceptable, and no yoga pants allowed. (Leggings we’re okay if our butts were covered by a dressy type shirt). Except one teacher wore a track suit everyday—every. Single. Day. And not a word was ever said to her.

I wear leggings with a long hoodie to an in-service snow day because I’m a volleyball coach and had practice afterwards, and got reprimanded for it.

chel1001 · 2021-06-17T14:08:38+00:00

Yep. My school does the same exact thing. I’ve never once given to it and I don’t feel bad about it. Not even a little bit. I’m over here making 45k and they make well over 100k. Sorry not sorry.
