Katherine Hunt+FollowWhy Teachers Need a 4-Day WeekImagine being so exhausted you’re basically running on caffeine and hope—welcome to teaching! People think teachers have it easy with early finishes and long holidays, but most are working unpaid overtime (like, 26 extra hours a week!). A four-day week isn’t a luxury, it’s survival. Giving teachers one protected day to plan and recover could actually keep more of them in the job and help students, too. The old system is burning everyone out—time for a real change! #Education #TeacherLife #FourDayWeek00Share
Jesse Chambers+FollowStudent Loan Forgiveness lifted a weight off my shoulders.I’ve been a public school teacher for 12 years. I love my students, but the crushing weight of my student loans made me question if I could afford to stay in this profession. I was paying hundreds a month, but the balance barely moved. Last month, I got the email: 'Your loans have been forgiven under PSLF.' I stared at the screen for an hour. For the first time in a decade, I can start saving for my own kids' college fund. It feels like the system finally loved me back." #PolicyChangedMyLife #StudentLoans #TeacherLife #PSLF #FinancialFreedom30Share
