WHEREAS Our Secretary of State Txec dal Nordselva has made twenty edits and requested that I proclaim a day in celebration of teachers

THEREFORE I declare July 19th, 2022 the Day of the Teacher

Back during lockdown times, a math youtuber I follow streamed a series of live lectures. They were aimed at high schoolers, but I enjoyed watching some of them as well, especially this one:

I am most grateful Estimat Seneschal. I will update the Wiki with our two newest holidays once the king signs the two PDs.

I am sure that Baron Davinescu and myself have a lot of stories from the days of distance learning. It felt like we were building an airplane in mid-air.

Yeah, it sucked.  The worst thing about it was that it entrenched a bunch of pre-existing systemic inequalities: the kids who needed help the most couldn't get it.

Good choice for a day of celebration!

Yes, the unequal access to learning was devastating. I can honestly say I never worked as a teacher so hard during that time.
