Recently, teachers in Alberta have made headlines as they push for better pay and working conditions. Striking is their legal right, a right that allows them to stand up for fair treatment and the resources they need to do their jobs well.
As an educational publication, we often hear directly from teachers about the challenges they face. It’s not an easy profession. Teaching can be a thankless, exhausting job—one that demands emotional resilience, endless patience, and deep dedication. The least the rest of us can do is support their right to advocate for themselves and for their students.
