Teachers Strike Revisited

The entirety of #SheridanCO high school’s student body walked out today to support the teachers because their #union has not been “recognized” by the district since last summer.

EDIT: I’ve been looking for a news outlet that has covered it but I haven’t seen one yet. Sheridan is small but I’m sure #Denver 7 News will cover it

According to the local teacher's union, MFE 59, they say one of their teacher's was abducted by ICE right as school let out.

Thankfully the educator was released the same day but many students witnessed this unjust and unwarranted arrest.

"Oklahoma Superintendent Ryan Walters announced Wednesday that he would step down from his role overseeing the state's schools to lead the conservative group Teacher Freedom Alliance, saying, 'We're going to destroy the teachers unions.'

The announcement from Walters, a conservative Republican who pushed to incorporate teaching about the Bible into public school classrooms, caps off a contentious tenure marked by a willingness to embrace culture war issues."

so #oklahoma's #ChristianNationalist superintendent of schools - the guy who was trying to put the 10 commandments in every classroom and who just a day or two ago announced every school in the state would have its own chapter of charlie kirk's #TurningPointUSA - got caught watching a movie with naked ladies in it (possibly not porn?) in a meeting and has resigned (not totally clear those things are related or if it's just because oklahoma dropped to 50th out of 50 states in education during his tenure).
