It takes a village to raise child and good teachers make good citizens. Teachers are a key part of our village. Life is more expensive than ever and we need to stand by the people who make our village possible. Teachers are tremendously strained by swelling economic tides and shifting financial sands of the early 2020s.
Snoot Notes supports teachers. A civil society is an educated society. Teachers should be aware of the shifting economic tides and realize that their salaries have been dwarfed by inflation. Meanwhile key public school administrators don’t even live in the states they serve, let alone the cities. Teachers should demand their admins live where they work. It is unfathomable that local educational dollars are sent to out of state interests.
Teachers should demand school districts use their money locally instead of paying out of state parties. School administrative budgets are out of control. Snoot Notes supports rebalancing administrative budgets to teacher salaries.
