Working Saturday morning - tutoring SAT side hustle.
1. Mindset 2. Plan 3. Execute
I’ve made all the mistakes and learned from them. I’m actually happy I made them. It’s never too late to change.
I’m a teacher - don’t make a ton - but my side hustle has:
1. Paid off my car- used Toyota Prius
2. Paying off the last of my debt - 16 months early
It’s about a mindset - a plan - and effort - you don’t need to be a financial genius
Be honest with your spouse about finances. Y’all are a team. Blows my mind how many couples are not 100% transparent

By Patrick Martin | Currently, many of our Charleston County classrooms are having a hard time just finding a teacher. The good news is that there are steps being taken to remedy this, but we need community support. dlvr.it/SpRnRt

One month of daycare in suburban South Carolina for both kids is the price of an entire paycheck for me.
...Tell me why people are quitting education in droves without telling me...

Pipeline of incoming educators has been dwindling for many years - teacher education enrollments down more than a 1/3 between 2008-2019.
Vouchers are more important though?

1. Massive teacher shortage - 2. Low pay - 3. Rising student population
No - let's argue about an opening prayer
CCSD we are better than this

"The study concluded that teachers should be treated as experts and given leadership opportunities."
Should "experts" in their field be paid as much as their teenage students can earn?

Regardless of political leanings - The recent South Carolina debate on school vouchers is an archaic and disproven take on public education. @SCforEd @TheSCEA @PC_EdLab #edchat
