Good work. This dastardly criminal wrongthink QR code image threatens our children and should be spread far and wide like an Old West wanted poster so it can be, uh, *banned*. Yeahhh that's the ticket. ;-)
Yeah, what a pity. As an author of edgy books for teens, several banned in several places who fought (& won) to keep my most read book in former GOP Paul Ryan's public school library--I must agree, a dangerous code.
Good on Oklahoma for having its priorities straight! DJT Bibles and prayers in public schools! NO free books from WOKE “teachers”! NO illiteracy shaming! Kids need coloring books, with wholesome Biblical scenes (maybe not all the OT rapey incest ones). The crucifixion is uplifting.
When I was a teen, the Roman Catholic Church, of course, had the Index of Forbidden Books that included the King James Bible. They could damn you to eternal hellfire if you thumbed through the books or watched Marilyn Monroe. It was my source of all the very best stuff, especially Marilyn.
When did learning and knowledge become 'uncool'?
My dad spent his entire respectable life pursuing enlightenment through education.
He'd been a republican all his life, until after he read my info, and Solzhenitsyn.
Never voted republican again.
Let's put it this way! The only people who don't read, are MAGAts...
Do you want to be a lowest common denominator/MAGA or a intelligent normal person..Go onto college and do something
The teacher should have displayed that QR code after prefacing it with 'I want you to be sure you do NOT scan this QR code. I'm showing it to you, so you know NOT to scan it. It leads to books the state does NOT want you to read. Now, on with the lesson, ...' [leaves QR code up for rest of day]
Teaching has become a career where we’re so unappreciated & we have no job protection. I have been unable to find an attorney to represent me on contingency after my rights were blatantly violated.
In my book, the teacher was always right.
It's THE first and foremost things we should be funding.
One of my sons teachers gave him life long lessons in his curriculum and how to take tests. Not the sweetest woman, but damn did she give him an awakening. Respect to you all.
3 of my former students who graduated from my classes several years ago called me over the weekend to wish me a Happy Thanksgiving. They still remember my birthday & text me on holidays & Mother’s Day every year.
And a parent of a student who was in my class last year reached out to me for advice this weekend. His son has autism & was having behavior issues over the break.
This is totally awesome and goes well with my previous posts about getting a list of banned books from your school and making them available to your children.
Summer Boismier, the teacher, actually resigned before they could fire her. The. Brooklyn Library offered her a job, and she moved to NYC and is, I believe, working there.
(Fun fact: the Oklahoma schools are not obeying in advance. No Bible verses, propaganda etc. the teachers don’t have the time nor the desire. Even the rural ones)very proud 🤘💙
(I mean, our tax dollars are paying for said bibles, private jets to football games and Dave and Busters, hot air balloon trips, GrindR, and NO summer lunch program )🙃 so it’s refreshing to have the pushback 🤘
This is not the country we have to imagine we live in, we already live in that country.
The only question now is, when will the people start saying enough is enough?
Project 2025 calls for less structured teachers, that is why the are doing vouchers, 'teachers' don't need a license in private schools.. more high school instructors..they don't want the
unions and they prefer dumb spawn like their wannabe parents...The less they know, the more they can indoctrinate them..
Pretty soon they will be watching Fox fake news with their wannabe parents..
People are so dumb here, they created the first publicly funded Catholic charter school. Then got pissed when the supreme court said you can't do that. We have so many teachers flooding our, anyone can get emergency certificates here. 🙄🙄
There is no such thing as an emergency certificate. You need to go to school ad get a degree at college...to much to Handke, get a job in Mcdonalds cleaning the bathroom.
That’s not true. Many states offer “emergency certificates” (or similar names) for hard-to-fill disciplines. Generally the person then has a specified amount of time to get their certification or license in that discipline.
In times of teaching shortages when a school district fails to get a qualified teacher to fill a vacancy, they prioritize getting trainable individuals. This may mean accepting applicants who don’t hold a teaching license or an education degree.
trump is not going to have any federal funding for college loans or any Pell Grants .no scholarships either, unless they are private..
No federal funds, parents have to take personal loans which are much more expensive.and shorter payback time...most will need collateral.
Libby is a free app that let's you download E/Kindle books from any library that you have a card for. Library cards are easy to get- just sign up online. You can belong to multiple libraries. It saves me soooo much time and money!

If they are, you need your hard drive checked by the authorities.
Buzz words can be misleading, it seems to me.
