#5thGraders #stoodup to a #homophobic #teacher at #Deerfield #ElementarySchool in #CedarHills, #Utah

After a #substituteteacher made #homophobic #remarks to the boy being adopted by 2 dads, classmates defended him and reported it. The #teacher was removed, and the community rallied in #support, #celebrating his adoption the following month

Because of the free speech-violating expansion of DeSantis' "Don't Say Gay" law to 12th, I'm banned from calling myself Ms. DePaul in class, and I would rather surgically graft myself to an angry skunk than pretend to be a man just to please the fascists running Florida. Therefore, from now on, all current and former students have permission to call me by my legal first name, Monica.

Transphobic school laws
Ban me being Ms. DePaul
Call me Monica

One of the worst things about being a #SubstituteTeacher is that some classrooms have signal, service, etc, and some don't. Today's classroom is a dungeon, no windows, dreary, and little stuffy. It's a bummer. Good thing I brought reading material...

#Today was my third day being a substitute teacher and first full day teaching subjects. I taught three different school Bands, Music Appreciation, Guitar, STEM, and AP Physics. Quite a challenge, but it went well! #substitute #substituteteacher #teachers #music #band #schoolband #school #exhausted

👋 Hi! Here's a new #introduction with more #hashtags! I'm an #education and #youth #policy #advocate and #freelance #consultant living in Northern #Virginia, #USA. I am a macro-practice #MSW and I conduct policy #research and #analysis, develop strategies and programs, and build successful #advocacy #campaigns. I'm most interested in work that addresses root causes of injustice and promotes #innovation to increase #equity. I'm fiercely #progressive but love doing #bipartisan work that serves the greater good. I'm active in my community as a part-time #substituteteacher #NAACP member, and #publicschools #parent. I'm proud to be #Jewish and of my bicultural/ #bilingual upbringing in #Italy and #Iowa. I love #puns #dadjokes and other forms of stupid #humor. Obsessed with :ablobcatattentionreverse: #cats :ablobcatattention:. At some point you will get tired of me telling you that I went to #SmithCollege #womenscollege. I usually have a #podcast #audiobook or #music in my ear, in particular #Americana #Pop #SingerSongwriter #Folk #FolkRock. I am here to support you if you are struggling with #PostPartum #anxiety #depression and other #mentalhealth challenges, #eatingdisorder or were diagnosed with #adhd as an adult because I have been there/am there, too. Keep scrolling if you're a TERF or antisemite, if you voted for TFG, if you think we should teach xtian nationalist propaganda in school in lieu of honest history, or if you can't resist saying "aLL liVEs MaTtER" when you hear #BlackLivesMatter because I will block you if you spew that hateful shit on my timeline.
