Show notes

We have a rare male on the show! Alex is both a teacher and a student. He’s presently teaching 4th grade and he’s a 2nd year doctoral student. His research is focused on the emotional challenges of teaching, specifically the stress, burnout, and emotional labor. Learn what “outlaw emotions” are and how women’s emotions are policed differently than men’s.

Episode 37: Key Eighth Grade Girls May 24, 2023

Show notes

This submissions episode is brought to you by Rihanna. You now have “Where Have You Been” stuck in your head. You're welcome.

We’re going over screenshots and emails today and, you all, these are bonkers. Teachers get asked to do SO MUCH outside of their regular duties. There are some leaked emails in here that expose parents and administrators asking teachers to do everything from custodial work to party planning on top of regular duties. (Although if we got to drive the zamboni, we might be interested in picking up some extra hours.)

Episode 36: You’re not Dolly the Sheep May 18, 2023

Show notes

Warning: This episode contains mentions of suicide This is the worst shit we have ever heard, ever read, ever reacted to. Anna was a counselor at the largest jr. high in Indiana with a caseload of 625 kids. The mental health among students had gotten so bad that it was only a matter of time before someone lost their life to suicide. Despite mountains of evidence that the students were not doing well, admin was dismissive. So Anna, after giving so much of her time and mental health, took to TikTok and walked away.

Episode 33: Daddy Principal Apr 27, 2023

Show notes

This week we’re talking to Tired Girl. That’s right, “four schools in four years” Tired Girl from listener submissions. She’s an SLP (we love our SLPs!) and she has all the tea to spill on the unethical and even illegal things she was asked to do. If there’s one thing she’s learned and wants to share, it’s that we need to listen to members of the autistic community. Don’t forget that. For more info on the autistic community’s wishes, SLP, self advocacy, and self care: @sensoryslp @fidgets.and.fries @racheldorseyslp @bilingueaac @aacforyouandme @thelisteningslp @thebuckeyeslp Patreon: patreon.com/teacherquittalk Frazz: tiktok.com/@mrs.frazzled Redacted: tiktok.com/@awalmartparkinglot

Episode 31: Thank You For Trauma Dumping Apr 12, 2023

Show notes

More letters, more horror stories. And honestly, this one gets pretty dark. Principles reading private diaries, students digging up defunct college Twitter accounts, and teachers going through backpacks without consent - the violation of privacy in this episode is out of control. But it’s not all bad because we have YOU. Really, our parasocial relationships with all of you keep us sane.

Episode 30: Reading Your Emails :) Apr 06, 2023

Show notes

We’re glad you like the submission episodes because there is a never ending supply of horror stories. This week it’s all about things that never should have happened. There are so many f*cked stories, like making students NOTIFY THE SCHOOL if they are on their period and need to carry a bag to the bathroom. Oh! Also apparently we’re an affront to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Patreon: patreon.com/teacherquittalk Frazz: tiktok.com/@mrs.frazzled Redacted: tiktok.com/@awalmartparkinglot
