@VVUHSD @VvuhsdS Thanks for an awesome kickoff event! Teachers and counselors are looking forward to an awesome 2022-23 school year!

The educator shortage has been a decade in the making. States and districts will only solve it by paying educators more, and respecting us. washingtonpost.com/education/2022…

@michaelwillif15 @VVUHSD @mradamwelcome @VvuhsdS Treat us like you need us

When you're wondering who to thank for your salary increase...

Today's #SCOTUS decision undermines public education by diverting public funds to private religious schools, much like the voucher schemes rejected by California voters on multiple occasions. We must continue to lead the way to protect public funds for public schools. #WeAreCTA

When we collectively fight, WE WIN!!! Union members have a say about pay, benefits, working conditions and how their jobs get done. Also, unions provide a counterbalance to the influence of corporate money in our democracy. Remember, you are the union! #UTLAStrong

Happy #PrideMonth! To our lesbian, gay, bi, trans, and queer students and educators: 👀We see you. 💖We support you. 🌈And we are proud of you! #WeAreCTA #Pride #LoveIsLove

@teachergoals How about a calculator watch?

Same! 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️

Appreciation is wonderful, but it isn't enough. Educators need competitive salaries, safe working conditions, respect, and the freedom to tell the truth to their students. #WeAreCTA washingtonpost.com/education/2022…

A few VVTA teachers and counselors came to this week's @VVUHSD board meeting to protest the district's unwillingness to negotiate. We will fight for what we deserve!

Attention teachers! The district is not showing us they are willing to work on our new contract. We are doing an informational picketing at the @VVUHSD District Office today starting at 4 pm, please join us. There will be food!

Happy #MayDay! Today, we celebrate all the rights that working people have fought for, and recommit ourselves to the righteous fights to come. #WeAreCTA #UnionStrong
