Teachers across the country are demanding better for our kids. Let’s stand with them in their fight for fair pay and better resources for students. To the teachers walking out today: We hear you. We stand with you.

teachers dedicated to money, are not dedicated to a good education. the teachers of the 1950's and 60's where highly underpaid. but were extremely dedicated, to children's education.
-
Teachers in the 50's also had updated equipment, small class sizes, parent support in discipline, and respect from students, parents, administration, and the community. Oh and not sure if you noticed, but the cost of living was much different then too.
-
please specify what, updated equipment to support your argument. but even if you adjusted for the cost of living, it was still far cheaper than today. and one person, working per household with one job was sufficient.
