The Revolution Has Begun

Yesterday, Kansas lawmakers made a decision to eliminate tenure for public school teachers in Kansas.  Here is my response.


Dear lawmakers,


You cannot break me. Tomorrow, I will go into my classroom and teach with all of my heart and soul. This is what I am called to do. You politicians who play with our lives and the future generations to come have no idea what we do. I invite you to join me in my classroom, at any time. Show up unannounced and join my amazing students in an authentic, engaging, learning experience. I have great hope that this will work itself out and what is right will be done. To all of my fellow educators, teach on. Remember why we do what we do. We can and will fight this, while still doing what is best for our future generations. The revolution has begun.


Carrying on,
