        The teachers are standing there clapping like "hey thanks for being patient while we spend 9 days being whiney babies and not putting you and your education but us and our financial situation first"

        I'm all about teachers getting fair pay, I come from a whole line of teachers. But protest on your own time, not during the school months. That times belongs to the students and their education

        Can we just take a minute to internalize the fact that these teachers had to strike for 5%? #Underpaid #Underappreciated #WVteachers

        Businesses dont give 5% raises anymore. More abuse of taxpayers.

        They are the 48/50 in teacher's salaries. And the jobs these people do are far more important than what we compensate them for.

        Are they applauding the kids they just abandoned for 9 days?

        Good for them. Our children are our most important resource! Pay our educators, it's an investment in our future.

        Starting wages should be 45k and for every year they should have one year of college debt paid for...5% ?? That's embarrassing?

        Hats off to the #Teachers of West Virginia. Not only did they fight for what was there's, they did it without letting the opposition use the kids they love as a weapon against them.

        Teachers are the builders of next generation and they need to get remunerated well.

        That's nice but that probably means less then $2,000 yearly increase for most educators. Nothing on benefits? Idk sounded like a go big or go home situation.

        West Virginia teachers have ultimate Gall... They are turning out students from high school who are years behind Northern High Schools ... What West Virginia needs to do is fire all the current teachers and get in teachers who know what the hell they are doing ...
