Greetings!
If you have not opened the email sent Sunday evening, you
are
not sufficiently informed about what has happened in
negotiations. Please read it.
District Stalls on Compensation
Your OEA Bargaining Team needs more than their voices at the
table. They need, at this critical time of negotiations, to have the voices of
the membership supporting them.
Visibly. Loudly. And in multitudes. This Wednesday.
5:30-7:00.
No Class Size Limits for Special Ed
I don't have to tell you the struggles of your Special Ed
sisters and brothers. You see their ever increasing case loads, increasingly
needy students, decreasing level of support. Please honor their efforts as they
present their issues to the Board.
Visibly. Loudly. And in multitudes. 2nd Ave. and E. 10th St.
Adult Education May Be Eliminated
It was the recommendation of the Superintendent as recently
as May 8. Students, parents, and teachers will come on May 22 to stand up for
this vital service to our city, especially our immigrant community. Join them.
Visibly. Loudly. And in multitudes. For as long as you are
able.
OEA members have always been there for their students, their
community, and for each other. And even as we feel as if we can barely make it
to the holiday weekend, this Wednesday I ask that you be there for all, once
again. For as long as you can. But...
Visibly. Loudly. And in multitudes.
In Solidarity,
Trish Gorham
