The teachers of Puerto Rico and citizens were able to stave of charter schools and privatization many times. But in 2018 the law was changed to allow the privatization of upro 10% of schools. #crossborderconference2019 #SocialJustice #bced

Great to see @Rob_Fleming announce new school for @Surrey_Schools. In a district growing by >1000 students/year, even more is needed! #bced

Have a listen to @GlenHansman with @CBCGloria on @CBCOnTheCoast. He outlines the solutions #bcpoli needs to take action on to address #bced's teacher shortage. cbc.ca/player/play/143857824…

Teachers work hard in busy, diverse, and complicated classrooms every single day to ensure students get the support they need. Our kids and their teachers are worth investing in. #bced #bcpoli #ItTakesATeacher

When you look at the cost of living in BC vs. teacher salaries, it's not hard to see the correlation & understand why BC is still scrambling to recruit. Higher salaries elsewhere with a lower-cost of living makes BC a hard sell! teapaw.org/jenkimbley/status/9896…

Thank you @ohana_annie Am relieved that my ideas about the questions I should ask worked out well.

Unsettling the BC curriculum w/shop with Sarah Shove: historicizing inequalities, striving for a unified national identity, and remedying the past is counter to, and not reconciliation. Great day of critical thinking #CrossBorderBC

Love this year plan for grade 5 SS from @sarshove #sschat
Term 1: start with our intersectional identity, how that informs our worldviews, and whiteness.
Term 2: Indigenous connection to the land (treaty and non-treaty)
Term 3: Residential Schools
