The Teacher's Pay Conversations Project
...conversations about teacher's salaries.
For
decades we have been paying teachers less
than
skilled laborers.
We consider the services of plumbers and
electricians to be of more value than those of
teachers. What's at the root of this
inequity?
Given that a teacher's salary is an acknowledgment one can't help but wonder
if there is a correlation between the way we
acknowledge teachers (compared with
carpenters and longshoremen) and our experience
of love, health, and prosperity (a sustainable economy).
We see by the results that there
has been an unacknowledged conspiracy to keep
teachers pathetically begging for salaries, supplies, and building maintenance
funds.
What have
we been trying to communicate by subjecting our
mentors to this humiliating abusive treatment?
Are there conversations that could effect financial
parity
between
longshoremen and teachers?
The Teacher's Pay Conversations Project supports
everyone in acknowledging his/her intentions clearly and
responsibly. It's important to know that how one
communicates, even nonverbally,
makes
a
difference.
