So, This Actually Happened: Tales from a reTIRED Teacher

by Traci D.W. Jackson

There is so much red tape in public education today. Teachers are not free to speak openly, honestly, and candidly to parents and students. Teachers feel silenced, disposable, and sometimes completely insignificant. The long-term effects of these feelings are increased teacher turnover, increased parental dissatisfaction, and utter chaos in the classroom. Author Traci D. W. Jackson spent ten years, closely observing the inner workings of the public education system as a classroom teacher. Her views and suggestions on improving the public school system are vividly expressed in So, This Actual Happened: Tales from a reTIRED Teacher. This book challenges students' current educational dynamic, communicates teachers' true desires, and compels readers to analyze their role in supporting the children they cherish. This conversational nonfiction book passionately and humorously suggests specific actions that ensure student success and teacher retention. This book is for every teacher, every parent, and everyone who loves a child.
