Campus security just dropped off buckets with cat litter, water bottles, plastics bags, and granola bars as “survival kits” for lockdown drills. It feels scary and crazy. Anyone else’s school doing this?

Cat litter?! Not something I ever thought I would need in a classroom. We don't have survival kits, but it sounds like a good idea.

too. ioe have a Red bucket emergency kit that also can be used as a toilet in case of long lockdowns. We have a case of water to
.

I had a previous district that did that. It was the most prepared district I ever worked at. We actually would have meetings immediately following any type of drills to discuss what worked and what didn’t work

We have disaster kits as well. It's not likely they'll ever be used, but it's good to have. I have a disaster kit at home I'll probably never use, but again, better to be safe and prepared!

We just got ours this month too. It’s sad that this is a must. It makes sense, since lockdowns can last a long time.

We do not have disaster kits. This is really interesting to me, though!

Hi, I’ve recently been made redundant unexpectedly as the company want to switch to B2B sales and replace my cx teams roles with biz dev. They gave a 5 week notice with final pay end of this month.

I also believe they’ve known since February as they asked us all to resend contracts back then. How should I approach declining to complete this work?

I am a new teacher(15 years as a para) I just started this year in middle school. I have some really disrespectful and disruptive behaviors in two of my classes. Ignoring instructions, being loud and blurting out. Getting other students going. I am so sad for the ones that want to learn! I have called home and will again tomorrow. I just don’t know how to gain respect from these few students. Any feedback would be great.

I just recently resigned my teaching position for a position in another state to be closer to family. I will be making a lot less money (about 1/2 as much). Am I crazy to give up a high paying teaching position that took me 12 years to get to on the pay scale or is being closer to my family worth the pay cut? Anybody ever found themselves in a similar situation? I gave up tenure too. Honestly, I wasn’t happy living in my home town making the most money I've made. I guess it’s a leap of faith!
