Custom Stickers, Die Cut Stickers, Bumper Stickers - Sticker Mule



Sharing information and reporting on all that reeks in American education, especially corporate reform in K12 education, the agenda to privatize the right to a free public education for every child, and general corruption in K12-higher education. Calling out and exposing rather than cowering.

AND eager for your help. Have a story of power, manipulation, self-interest or injustice which needs attention? Let me know and we'll let the world discover "what's that smell."

Report Suggests Which States are Best, Worst for Teacher

WalletHub has released a study ranking the states and the national's capital in terms of teacher-friendliness. My originating state of North Carolina checks in at 51, not surprising at all. Washington ranks highly in several categories but does not break the top 25, w hich I'm sure will shock many in the Evergreen State. Here's a list of states in which I've taught and their rankings from the study, just for fun.

North Carolina: 51
Tennessee: 41
Virginia: 05
Mississippi: 50
Texas: 29
Washington: 30

Whee! How exhilarating, right? I'm not surprised to Virginia so high on the list. I wonder if it is worth noting neither Texas nor Virginia are Common Core states?

Click this link for an interactive map and more details. All studies are limited by their criteria, of course, but if you're fascinated by rankings (no matter how arbitrary) like me, this might interest you.
