Teacher Walkout

We are now on Day 6 of the teacher walkout to fully fund education in Oklahoma!  The kids have been out of school for the past 6 days while their teachers have been fighting for them at the Oklahoma capital.  On day 4 a group of neighbors brought the kids down to the capital to show our teachers that we stand with them in this fight!  It was such a good experience for the kids to see and helped them understand why they have been out of school.  Their teachers care about them and their future more than I could have ever imagined!  We are beyond blessed to have such a supportive, caring and dedicated group of teachers!

 The kids handed out snacks to the teachers.  They were definitely a hit with everyone and brought smiles to so many faces.  Once we were out of snacks, they highfived, fist pounded and said thank you to all the teachers walking by!

 One of our neighbors made us tshirts that said "Parents Stand with Teachers" and "Students Stand with Teachers".  The teachers were so thankful for our support!
