Truth is, teachers here in Massachusetts are mandated reporters ... which sometimes limits a parent's willingness to even hint at family challenges. Students are also often unwilling to share info that might involve authorities' interventions. In a more perfect world, all of us would automatically assume that any child not behaving or performing at their typical level is dealing quietly with personal issues... and maintain a compassionate, supportive approach. ❤

Love this idea

Teachers are burned out. If you’re a teacher, here’s a little support.

I Stopped Taking Work Home, and It's Made Me a Better Teacher and Parent Nearly 125,000 teachers are leaving the field each year because of burnout. Leaving paperwork at school on the weekends is one way to combat it.

Defending a Teacher’s Right to Disconnect Remember personal time? For many educators, technology has driven it toward extinction—and it’s time to get serious about reclaiming it.

"School failed me, and I failed the school. It bored me. The teachers behaved like Feldwebel (sergeants). I wanted to learn what I wanted to know, but they wanted me to learn for the exam. What I hated most was the competitive system there, and especially sports. Because of this, I wasn't worth anything, and several times they suggested I leave. This was a Catholic School in Munich. I felt that my thirst for knowledge was being strangled by my teachers; grades were their only measurement. How can a teacher understand youth with such a system? From the age of twelve, I began to suspect authority and distrust teachers."
