Again, a perfect example...
All teachers think the way I do, but many are actually walking out on the job in protest to make a change. Have you not see that multiple states have had massive rallies? Don't you think there's a reason for this?
I teach in the state ranked #49 in K-12 education...we haven't had a walkout yet, but it's probably coming soon.
According to another site, we're dead last in the country.
I teach because I can reach a select few every year and make a life-long impact that can spread like wildfire. But it becomes harder and harder to make that impact as these kids are given smartphones with unlimited data and their teachers are blamed when they get bad grades. Sorry to say it, but in my class, the grades are directly proportional to the effort put in by the student. Oh, I forgot, I'm supposed to say "scholar" now because "student" doesn't put them on a high enough pedestal.
