Below is a statement from the Hinsdale District #86 resident regarding the work of his daughter in Ohio. He was responding to a statement, below, from the Ohio Education Assn. Thought you would find his story about the work of his daughter telling.
Parent: "Never has a truer statement been written. I know because my daughter teaches a diverse class of second graders in a public charter school in Akron, Ohio. She works 11 hour days Monday thru Friday and puts in another 6 to 8 hours on the weekend. A portion of her modest personal paycheck is spent on supplies, books and classroom equipment for her kids. On many days, she may be the only positive experience in her students' lives."
From the Ohio Education Assn. "Every school in America has teachers working for free on a daily basis. Go by any school parking lot early in the morning, late in the afternoon, or even at night or on weekends, and you will see them. No overtime, no bonuses or promotions on the line - just doing it for the students! Teachers are using their free time, and often investing their own money, for children's literacy, prosperity and future. Re-post if you are a teacher, love a teachers, or appreciate a teacher."
