Last Thursday, our unions Northside AFT, San Antonio Alliance, and Texas AFT hosted a meet and greet with electeds and political candidates to discuss all things public education. We are grateful to our elected officials and endorsed candidates for their support. ✊🏼💙

Today Socorro AFT had the pleasure to join Myrtle Cooper Elem. Principal Miranda at it's Watch Dawgs recruitment meeting. We distributed free First Book books to all. Thank you for keeping our schools safe. #IamAFT #UnionStrong #TeamSISD #Allin

New: In a survey of 950 Texas faculty 61% said they would not recommend accepting a position in the state, according to a press release from Texas Conference of the AAUP. "Among faculty seeking to leave Texas, their greatest concern was the state’s political climate," it said. Salary was second.

The right to affordable, high-quality childcare is one of the 10 identified by our members as essential in our Educator's Bill of Rights. Childcare deserts feed the teacher retention crisis. Looking forward to this #Tribfest24 discussion! texasaft.org/campaigns/bill…

"Our public schools are in crisis and our teachers are struggling." I’m proud to stand with our educators to support real legislation to help our schools flourish and our kids learn. #HD70 #CollinCounty #ProtectPublicSchools 🏫✏️ cbsnews.com/texas/news/tex…

How do you feel about this ban for teachers who leave mid-year without "good cause"? Outside of health reasons and changes in family circumstances, are there good reasons that a teacher might have to leave mid-year?

“A-F needs to be revamped” says ⁦Ken King⁩ STAAR was never meant to be used to grade and penalize schools, we need to “fully fund schools.” High percentages of school districts are on deficit budgets. #txlege #tribfest24
