Are Teachers the New Therapists?
Even before the pandemic, teachers were asked to check on students’ mental health, which was a realistic request. However, since then, schools, districts, and communities have demanded that more be done in the classroom under the guidance of the classroom teachers to ensure the students are “doing well mentally.”
Teachers' roles have been demanding for years, if not decades. With faculty inclusion, there are fewer supports for them and more for the students. Administrators fail to support teachers as they continue to pile more responsibilities upon them while taking away what was thought to be reasonable respite (planning time, personal time, etc.).
So, what gives? This week we explore this unfathomable conundrum.
