When you don't let schools teach about Civil Rights, that's oppression. #MartinLutherKingJr #MLKDay #CriticalRaceTheory #CRT #TBATs .@ColoradoBATsA .@AZBatsA .@NewMexicoBATs .@IdahoBATs .@OregonBATs .@NVBats .@AlaskaBATs .@hawaiibats .@CaliBats .@WaBATs_

Schools are supposed to be places of learning. Not places for corporate profiteering. #TBATs .@ColoradoBATsA .@AZBatsA .@NewMexicoBATs .@NVBats

It's the scourge of mandated Professional Development: Experts who are not. #TBATs .@AZBatsA .@NewMexicoBATs .@NVBats .@ColoradoBATsA .@TxBats .@OklahomaBATs .@LouisianaBATs

What has education come to? Talented, experienced teachers who love teaching are leaving in droves. You want to fix the Teacher Shortage? Fix this. #TBATs .@ColoradoBATsA .@AZBatsA .@NewMexicoBATs .@NVBats #RespectTeachers

"Free-Market" is not free when the whole motivation is profit and/or proselytizing. Not to mention the tax breaks. #SupportPublicSchools #TBATs .@AFTBATcaucus .@BATs_DC .@NEABATCaucus .@OhioBATs .@VirginiaBATs .@MIBATS .@BATsDelaware .@PennBat .@MemphisbatBa .@KentuckyBATs

Every month the Badass Teachers @BadassTeachersA selects some truly awful people harming education. Take a look at the latest BAD APPLES. facebook.com/BadassTeachers… #TBATs @ColoradoBATsA @AZBatsA @NVBats @WyomingBATs @MontanaBATs

Schools are under immense pressure right now. We'd like to thank these people for standing up for #PublicEducation. facebook.com/BadassTeachers… #TBATs @ColoradoBATsA @AZBatsA @NVBats @WyomingBATs @MontanaBATs

#WinterIsComing Disease is still out there ready to pounce. So we need a multi-layer approach to keep ourselves & others safe. Especially in schools until all ages of children can be vaccinated. #TBATs @NVBats @TxBats

No singing in Music? Just humming because anything else spreads Covid? Okay, grownups, let's get everyone vaccinated so children can sing again. #TBATs badassteacher.org/bats-blog/good… #TBATs #VaccinesWork @Nj21United @VirginiaBATs @BATs_DC @MarylandBAT @BATsDelaware @WVBats

Just like football players have to wear helmets to protect them from brain injury, kids should have to wear masks to protect them from a deadly airborne disease. #Covid #MasksWork #VaccinesWork #StopTheSpread #TBATs @WyomingBATs @ColoradoBATsA @MontanaBATs @AlaskaBATs

If you've already had covid, your immunity lasts only about 3 months and is far less effective against the variants than the vaccine. So get your shot. It's safe, effective & free. #TBATs thebulwark.com/what-is-natura… @AZBatsA @NVBats @TxBats @ColoradoBATsA @iowabats @OklahomaBATs

The more diseases spread, the more they mutate. So far the vaccines are highly effective against #Delta Covid. But that won't last without some basic cooperation. No more messing around. Get the shot. #TBATs @TxBats @NVBats @ColoradoBATsA @NebraskaBATs

As kids head back to school, don't burden them with tales of how they've fallen behind. Instead, celebrate their strengths. And build that shared sense of community they've missed. #TBATs @Nodakbats @SoDakotaBATs @NebraskaBATs @kansasbats @OklahomaBATs

It's summer! Great time to read. Real books or screens. Both are good in their own ways. For remembering... real books are better according to research studies. #TBATs @NVBats @TxBats @ColoradoBATsA @NewMexicoBATs @AZBatsA

Around 40,000 children in the US have lost a parent to Covid. It’s vital that schools be given the time & space to work on the social/emotional needs of their students. Academics come second. More here: nancyebailey.com/2021/05/09/the… #TBATs @MemphisbatBa @AlabamaBATs @SoCarolinaBATs
