Description

Under the Trump regime, Emma Adams Howard describes her experience teaching on the front lines. She highlights how the future of America is influenced by both President Trump and the parents supporting him in this rural Wisconsin school. She accounts the vast differences from teaching in Wisconsin to her student teaching experience in South Carolina and her first year teaching in an extremely diverse community in Orlando, Florida. In addition to the negative impact of a president whose rhetoric is divisive, Emma Adams Howard points out the necessity of a supportive administrative from every principal all the way to the Secretary of Education. Howard's experience proves adults need to take a stand and elect a president who prioritizes education.
