Itโs not your fault but itโs 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 reasonsโthey 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
ALT MissouriSchools.org graphic comparing median published salary ceilings of $58,700 in rural districts and $98,009 in suburban districts, a $39,309 gap.
Math teachers everywhere are rolling their eyes. #Rounding rules changed by @McDonalds WHY???
I did not know this! @funauntheather @colorblindadam
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-dโฆ
