Dear #oklaed and our government leadership,
I’m #irreplaceable. I’m sitting in bed with Covid thinking about how I teach a full load and coach 3 sports and make less than 50k, but do it not because of the fame, glory and money. I do it because it’s my talent. I do it because..
I’m gifted at developing relationships with my students. I use those relationships to open them up to learning about subjects they otherwise don’t care about. It’s hard. It doesn’t always work. But I’d say I’m damn effective and #irreplaceable.
And any time other adults step in my classroom, they’re met with the same respect that they give to me. However, they don’t have the same relationships and just aren’t as effective. They don’t know my kids. They don’t know their needs, wants, hurts, successes. I’m #irreplaceable.
But due to my state’s massive failures… There’s laughable leadership at a time when we need it most. We are sick. We are quitting. We are in a time where education needs modernization. We are underpaid and undervalued. You have created a storm with the #irreplaceable. #oklaed

See 63 in the middle? I want you to meet Ari. She’s a student council member. She’s an A student. She’s a proud Native. She also started and played every snap at center for our middle school football team. We didn’t give her the spot. We never once took it easy on her….
We told our boys that no one was going to take it easy on her, and could possibly try to throw extra bodies at her to find a weakness. BUT NO ONE FREAKING COULD. 💪 Her shotgun and under center exchange rates were almost perfect. She held blocks and double-teamed extremely well.
She is a key reason we tied for 1st in the south division. She was always at practice, always working her butt off and never made excuses. She led that line. I am HONORED to be her coach. And I just needed y’all to know her name. #womeninsports
