    My son finished kindergarten last year, he’s autistic so he has a regular classroom and a special Ed classroom that he switches between. I bought snacks for both classrooms throughout the year as a thank you to the teachers and they were really happy. They usually have to buy snacks so the kids don’t go hungry on top of how little they’re paid. This repeats for supplies. I helped there too. They were so grateful I got the impression they’ve had to choose between supplies for the kids and their own needs. I live in a high cost of living area, there’s no fucking excuse for this. Preying on the compassion of teachers to save a few fucking bucks is so deplorable and it’s happening all over the country. Can’t we make having humanity great again ffs?
