It’s not your fault but it’s your responsibility. #Teachers live this everyday. #Students come to school unprepared and teachers must teach them and hope that the students are successful on the state #assessment

Students are unprepared for school for many reasons—they could be unfed , unbathed, abused, unloved, never had a book read to them, never taught respect for authority, to take responsibility, or to have a love for learning, etc.

$58,700 rural. $98,009 suburban. That's a $39,309 gap in the median published teacher salary ceiling. Same state. Same certification. Radically different career earning power. Missouri's $40,000 floor should not hide that unfairness. MissouriSchools.org/pay @MSTA @MASALeaders

I did not know this! @funauntheather @colorblindadam
The Missouri Senate is one of only 2 state legislative bodies in the country that does not video stream debate and has strong rules that deny voters the ability to find out how their legislator votes. They talk about transparency but do everything to hide tough votes.

Thoughts?
Missouri legislature's push for "parental choice" IS NOT about kids or education. It will hurt rural schools and average-income families. "School Choice" $ go to those who can afford to pay the remaining tuition after voucher $ covers PART of cost. It's a rich, suburban family entitlement. kypolicy.org/the-impact-of-d…

Latest data @uscensusbureau shows counties in blue have a population of people over 65 that is larger than people under 18. 🔥 How will this impact issues like education, healthcare, taxes--general economic conditions? @nrea1 @AASAHQ @MASALeaders census.gov/library/visualiza…
