Other countries look at us and wonder why we choose guns over children.
I am a teacher and a mother and an American and I choose children over guns #GunReformNow

US teachers average around 1,076 hours of instructional minutes per year while the rest of the world averages 655.
In an average week, US teachers teach for 27 hours while in Finland it's 21 and in Singapore it's 17.

Politicians who are suggesting that we invest in fortifying schools have NO IDEA that many of these schools don’t have drinkable water, air conditioning/heat, and proper ventilation… how about invest in fixing that first.

If Black elders who suffered Jim Crow are still w/us, & Native elders who were robbed of their land & rights are still w/us, & Japanese elders who were forced into Camps are still w/us—why do we pretend the people & systems who committed those atrocities are magically gone?🤔

We can’t expect teachers to work 60-70 hrs per week or more, but then tell them to self care. Maybe leaving is their self care? Let's focus on taking care of teachers in the 2022-2023 school year!

If you really want to lure teachers to your campus, give them an extra planning period. It gave me back my mental health, gave my husband his wife back & my sons their mother, rather than a zombie always grading & working at home. Teachers can move mountains w/ a 3rd planning!💗

Students often believe #STEM fields aren't for them based on a single failure, a bad grade, or a tough teacher, but any student can be #scienceminded and reclaim their STEM identity. Here's how! buff.ly/39ZBHjy

Booo whoo. we're tired of people ignoring the problems and ills of our society. Thank you Yankees. Facts matter. Our children matter. Our safety matters
As a die-hard Orioles fan, I am proud to promote this tweet from the Yankees #ALeast #GunSafetyNow

When an assault weapon is used in a mass shooting, it results in six times as many people shot than when other guns are used.

Across the country, parents are putting their children to bed, reading stories, singing lullabies—and in the back of their minds, they’re worried about what might happen tomorrow after they drop their kids off at school, or take them to a grocery store or any other public space.
