                Teachers, Firefighters, Medics and police officers need better pay!

                  The school system has been underfunded for to long, making some schools to declare bankrupcy and close down. hopefully they don't shut down enrichment programs for doctors, vets, and defenetly not sports teams. - Nerd of Power

                    I can agree, teachers work really hard and if they got a low payment I would be FURIOUS! Because my teacher is always tired at the end of the day and If I found out that they got a low payment, I would march to the principals office and demand a higher payment.

                        Same here, I LOVE school. It's a chance to hang out with friends, and I'm super interested in anything that involves learning. (That's why I signed up for iDOGO.) I also really like Language Arts, but the teacher is kinda strict but she's super nice once you get to know her. People were talking about their favorite classes and when I told them I loved Language Arts they gaped.
