Back to school season shouldn’t be the start of school shooting season. Literally no other developed country has anywhere near the level of gun violence we have in this country and it’s fucking unacceptable we act like there’s nothing we can do.

I haven’t been following/caring about WVU football since I moved from Morgantown in 2020 but dang watching the Pat McAfee Show and thinking about the game today, I am so in my feels. Is this the influence of a boy in my belly?! LETS GO!

Ahh the last night of spring break. When you realize you did none of the productive things you said you’d do over spring break… 😅

Not a month into fostering and I already feel like I could write a novel about the woes of navigating the systems… and then we get a call that our foster agency is closing in a month. Cool cool. #wv #fostercare

If you don’t post about how many books you read in a year, can you even read? The only book I loved this yr was the breathtaking Demon Copperhead. I will hold Demon in my ❤️ for a lifetime. Here’s to not taking recommendations from others & only reading books *I* want in ‘24!

Regardless of expansions of the Hope Scholarship, the vast majority of school-age children will continue to be educated in our public school system, which will have fewer resources as a result. Read the full report here: wvpolicy.org/wp-content/uplo…

Public money should never be used to fund discrimination. Period. Read the damning report from our friends at West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy on the HOPE Scholarship, which funnels millions of WV tax dollars into private, unaccredited schools.

New report out today: the Hope Scholarship, West Virginia's "vouchers plus" program is expected to cost the public school system up to $21.6 million and an estimated 364 educator and personnel positions in the 24-25 school year. wvpolicy.org/wp-content/uplo…

Anyone have recommendations for Relevant/real world geometry tasks? I wish @citizen_math had a geometry section or I had a similar resource.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about teacher mental load and the ways that leadership either lessens or increases that load. What are ways your leadership impacts your mental work load (for the better or worse)? #TeacherChat #Leadership #Teachers #MentalLoad #Teacher

Few things can make me happier as a teacher than when I’m convinced my students will bomb their test and they completely prove me wrong. 👏🤩
