THANK YOU FOR JOINING US IN EDUSOLIDARITY TODAY

EDUSolidarity

EDUSOLIDARITY
Throughout the day of March 22, teachers will be sharing posts entitled “Why Teachers Like Us Support Unions”. For those of you here to share, thank you for doing so. To submit your posts, click here.

For those of you not sharing, we hope you will take the time to read from an extremely varied and wide variety of teachers across the country and world. We ask that you read with open minds. You will read many different reasons for support, some of them contradictory. What all stories will share though is a desire to serve students. We all feel that teachers unions give us the best shot to give our students the best possible education.

In Solidarity,
