This 6-inch binder - full of teacher experiences & key documentation - helped us present a strong case to the arbitration board. We could not have done this without member support. Thank you to all STF members for your time & dedication. Your hard work truly made a difference.

Do better @jeremycockrill. Do you have zero compassion? A child was severely burned and a teacher as well, and your response is “it could be have been worse”? You are deplorable!

What does it mean when the premier and minister talk about 'back to basics' in the classroom? Are they referring to when Sask led the country in per-student funding? Or when 40 kids in a class *wasn't* the norm? Sign up to support students and teachers at TellThemTuesday.com

This entire thread is gold!
I’m 37, and I don't want kids and I’m in a period of my life in which many of my friends—if not most of them—either have kids or plan to have kids. (thread)

This is an excellent question- teachers and school staff are exposed to violence regularly- be it physical or verbal- and then have to continue to see/teach the offender, often with no repercussions to them for the behaviour. It’s no wonder people are leaving the profession.
Why are schools the only place where an assault victim is expected to continue to see the perpetrator daily? #onted #cdned #edchat

Stopped at Hudson’s for lunch in Saskatoon after the parade. The servers were all wearing pride shirts and they had rainbows all over the deck. The server was a recent B.Ed grad- had a great chat about her concerns as she enters the profession!

Happy Pride Saskatoon! It was a beautiful day - the weather and the people. So many amazing entries in the parade and thousands of people came out to line the 2km stretch.

Hey @PremierScottMoe it would be great if you could around to refreshing the 1993 History 30 curriculum before creating new ones like Oil and Gas 20. Fun fact: the History 30 (Can. Hist) curriculum does not include mention of residential schools or 60s Scoop.

‘@STFPresident has put on a madterclass in leadership over the past year in this province’ ~@CarlaBeckSK (Sk Legislature, May 16/24) 100% agree! Teachers of this province are lucky to have Sam as a President and I am fortunate to be able to work with her on behalf of teachers.
