@DinnerlyUS Why does my Dinnerly box have a shipping date of Aug 30 and it just arrived today? Melted ice, soaking wet box—unacceptable

Since joining the FBS in 2022, JMU is 24-6 which is good for an .800 win percentage. The best win percentage by any team in FBS history is Ohio State with a .735 win percentage. The Dukes are off to a historic pace!

@ModestTeacher I want less work—especially the kind given to us by someone who hasn’t been in a classroom.

Interview with a teacher who recently left the profession. Why did you resign? “I have a Master’s degree. I work really hard. I love teaching kids and am great at my job. I do it all for a disgracefully low salary. All of that and I’ve never felt so disrespected by so many.”

Middle Level Educators are struggling with the dramatic changes in young adolescents. It is hard to engage &connect with kids. They are easy to anger, struggle with emotions, lost their filter regarding respect and have a lack of focus in school. Time for new ideas and solutions

I am just about done. Done with the redundancy, done with the disrespect, done with the micromanaging.

I've had a bunch of close friends leave teaching and start working in the private sector. Without fail, every single one of them says they are less stressed, their work/life balance is better, and their mental health is better, even though some are making less money. 1/

Great article about undefeated FBS teams by @NickSchultz_7. Too bad he didn't do his research, JMU is NOT in their second year in the FBS, this is the Duke's first year.
