Teachers use social media to help stock their classrooms, as friends, family, and strangers contribute to help out.
Like so many educators, Kaley McKee’s face lights up as soon as she starts talking about her students. She’s a first-grade teacher at Akron, Ohio’s Firestone Park Elementary, and has been teaching for nine years.“It makes them want to be there, makes them feel safe, kind of builds a little community with us as we decorate our classroom together,” McKee said.“Barely enough. I’ve always held a second job, I’ve always held a serving job,” she said.
Nonprofit AdoptAClassroom.org surveyed nearly 5,500 teachers and found that they spend an average of $750 of their own money on their classrooms.“When teachers receive a donation on AdoptAClassroom.org, they feel like their community values them, their profession is respected and that people see all that they’re doing for their kids,” said Devon Karbowski at AdoptAClassroom.org.
“It is who teachers are, and it is what they do to make a difference in the lives of kids,” Weingarten said. “There’s no other job that presumes that the employee is actually gonna subsidize the job and teachers do it just out of routine,” Weingarten said.
