I'm not actually a high school teacher, but will be teaching young adult students in an Independent Living Skills program. The students have significant disabilities. Anyone else out there do this?

I don't do that, but it sounds awesome. I teach ASOL Autism in an elementary school, so my students eventually end up in classes like that. I love working on independent living skills and seekng my students learn to take ownership of tasks.

I don’t teach it but in college I spent some time in classrooms like that! One of the things I found cool was how closely involved they were with the local agencies the students could use to help support them in their post-school life

I don’t but our high school has a program where the students run an actual thrift shop right near the school. It’s wonderful

Three observations from my market analysis this week:
1) Still work to do in repairing damaged trends with only energy and financials up over the last month
2) Technology has issues with rates, valuations, and supply chains for chips, so this could be heavy on the indexes
3) Setup for the week is concerning with OPEX, lots of data releases, and almost no IVOL premium - lots of event risk and limited hedging in place

I’m wondering if I’m overreacting, or she’s purposefully trying to just get paid more
