As a teacher in an underfunded, low income school district. This is the most realistic thing I’ve ever read. In fact the only 2 things I couldn’t relate to, were having a supportive admin, and being able to hold kids back.

But everything was so accurate. I actually laughed out loud when the girl came back from the bathroom to “we’ve been waiting for you” because I can’t tell you how many times I’ve done weird things just to make it through the day! Same thing goes with marker sniffing.

It also had me on the first page with the penises drawn everywhere because I can’t count the amount I’ve had to clean off, draw over, rip out... over the years.

I wish more people would read this and understand what we go through! Thank you for such an accurate description
