Meme of the Month:
#ArmMeWith
Many California educators are join-
ing the #ArmMeWith movement,
asking that educators be armed with
professional development, basic
resources and classroom supplies
instead of guns, in response to politi-
cians' call to "harden" schools. Check
out tinyurl.com/armmewith.
You can aid the movement by
participating in local and national
actions (such as the April 20
Day of Action), and by submit-
ting your own video or photo to
stories.cta.org/armmewith.
In addition, 18 — and counting
— former and current California
Teachers of the Year have made
#ArmMeWith videos. See
tinyurl.com/CATOY-ArmMeWith.

Why I Teach
CTA members Dean Hodges, Marcia Araujo and Allison Pruitt, all Santa Clara
County Teachers of the Year, talk about "Why I Teach" in a new short video. Pruitt
wants students to remember her as the one who "got them into reading books,
made them want to learn more or to like math." Hodges and Araujo (left) are similarly
inspiring. See tinyurl.com/SantaClara-TOY.
