Many of you reading this are teachers in Alberta. With the strike beginning Monday, I wanted to write today to remind you that you have the unconditional support of so many!
There are many who understand your dedication and commitment to education. There are many who know the long hours you spend–planning, prepping, assessing, coaching–outside of your time with students. There are many who realize that class sizes are much too large and classroom conditions much too complex to meet the needs of students.
Alberta used to be known as a leader in education. We can only do so much with the resources we are given. Let’s fight for the good of our children in this generation and those to come. Stand strong.
