“Teaching is already terrifying in the state of Arizona. Our Department of Education has literally set up a hotline for parents to complain about teachers they don’t like. The fusing for private and home schools is out of control and taking away from public schools. If Trump actually does what he said he would and puts schooling policies into the state’s hands, public schools and protections for students with special needs might be eliminated entirely in the state. There will always be a need for teachers, but I will not teach for a privately funded, biased, Christian-centric school, so when all of the rich, white, Christian companies are in charge of our schools, I’ll need to leave.”
