What advice can you give to the new teachers coming on board?  What changes need to be done? What should a new teacher avoid?   Is there something we need to do with contracts before they get signed?  So many questions.   Please pass on this advice and give those new teachers a great start.

With so many students in class, I guess it is hard to give that personal attention.  So what can someone do to find that common ground to show you are genuinely interested in that student’s education?  What can be done to keep a students interest without showing favoritism towards and individual?

I recently signed a petition for a teacher.  I believe it was Social Security Fairness Act Petition.  Who is keeping teachers from getting Social Security and Why?  I also was told this even affects the collection of your spouses Social Security!
