#armmewith


I am just sick about all of this.  Our legislators are not listening.  They just aren't.  They do not see the state of CRISIS that our students are in.  That our COUNTRY is in.

30+ kids in a classroom is just TOO MANY.  

One counselor for 700 student is NOT enough.

Access to military weapons is unacceptable.

Stress over statewide testing is unnecessary.

More than learning to read, write, or do STEM work, these kids need teachers to lead them in the way of compassion and kindness.  In teamwork and caring for others.  Teachers are under SO much pressure to make sure students pass the tests and improve their scores, that there is just not enough time to meet the social and emotional needs of 30+ kids in a classroom, too.  And that isn't even considering teachers who teach multiple classes of 30+ kids.

Enough is enough.  

Please write to your elected officials and demand change. Change for you.  Change for your students.  

You can download a copy of the letter I sent here.  Edit it to fit your needs!!
