Some teachers deserve all the good in the world.
Why can’t good people who want to do good work get paid for their time?
The super intendant of that school district is probably a millionaire, but doesn’t do any of the work.
It seems like only the shitty teachers that hate children are the ones that remain as teachers.
During grades 0-4, i had a special program where i would stay at school for 8 hours, but get no homework and had a 1 hour recreation break and big eating break(not to be confused with the shorter one), where we(my class) got served food(once we received moldy bread i think). Each friday we each got a pizza.
It buys the pizza or else is gets the hose again
I never appreciated this as a kid even though there was plenty of pizza to go around for everyone back then. If any teachers are in this thread reading this comment, thank you. Thank you. It does make a difference, even if it’s a small gesture.
My wife and I go out of our way to try to reinforce the fact that we, as parents, very very very much appreciate their teachers. We give them Christmas cards, end of year cards, we donate gifts to them, and any time they send home a letter saying they are running low on supplies we donate something with a thank you card. Hopefully this eventually becomes apparent to the kids that they should appreciate the teachers just as much.
