***WARNING: REAL TEACHER CONVERSATION*** Modified to protect my innocent, hardworking fellow teacher pals.
Teacher 1: What the f**k!? I have two fourty-kid classes. Can't someone figure this out? Every f**king year! It's becoming a bigger fiery trashcan every year and every year I think it can't get worse.
Teacher 2: I sent a kid back to the councilor to tell them that I wasn't letting them in class because there were kids sitting on the floor.
Do you need anymore proof that DISD needs more funding, classroom space, people that care about it, etc? It's time to stop playing politics and start playing whatever game makes sure our kids have money for the services they so desperately need. "Thinking about the tax payers" is staring to mean thinking about anything else other than the kids.
I'm overwhelmed, over-committed, my cat keeps bringing strange animals into my house and killing them which is really gross and concerning, and now my dog just ate goodness knows what from the corner of the living room.. Still, I am focused on our kids.
Take my taxes. I've been to school already. Our kids deserve our investment.
