General Education

Awesome kid with questionable parents
Hi all, I came to this forum because I would like some anonymous advice (want to protect the privacy of a student) over something that had been weighing in me since the end of the academic year. The title says it in a nut shell, last year I had this amazing little girl in one […]
Exasperated with Students Home Situations
I wrote this song in my classroom one day after hearing a 13-year-old student of mine ran away and became pregnant. I made this song about being exasperated with the issues my students face.

Many countries in Europe had less than 2% when they opened up schools. I have said that I feel less than 3% is very safe IMO. Many health officials have said […]
A mask mandate for school...
I’m going on the theory that if schools mandated masks, more parents would keep their kids at home rather than forcing students to wear masks. Anyone agree with this?
