You're welcome!!!

I support Teachers!!

As a once was, I want the now are and soon to be to rock.

Class sizes are huge, there is NO support staff (maybe once a week for 1,000 students) and this includes nurses, tech repair, counselors, custodians, maintenance, psychologists, 2nd lang support, secretaries, etc., non stop testing at all grades K-12 and low pay considering the cost of living. Forget about the thousands of dollars teachers pay out of pocket for supplies as well as the extra work we must do as the secretaries, custodians, and tech repair that we now have to do ourselves (if we can that is) on top of our teaching 50+ hours a week.

The first lesson that I learned as a new teacher and union rep is that schools are a business and the thing they care about is the bottom line, not the students, the parents or the teachers and the schools. It is ALL about money!

Students in CA get HALF what other students get in other states and that is ridiculous. We have tons of people and money in this progressive but expensive state but the state and cities are not giving it to the educators or the classrooms!

A misspelling, I know. Innauguration is misspelled--it's on purpose. It was an abomination, a sham, a stain, a black eye. It should never have happened. We must correct this horrible nightmare.
