Talk to Teachers Rally at School Committee Meeting-January 18, 2012 - 5:00pm - 6:30pm-26 Court St

We have scheduled three days of negotiations to take place in January and early February, after spending two days in December when some – limited – progress was made. However, we will be ratcheting up our attempts to get the city and the school district to make some real movement

We have hired a moving billboard to travel throughout the city to being home our message that we want the district and city to Talk to Teachers so we can conclude the negotiating process that will result in a contract that is good for students, affordable to the city, and fair to our members.

Our billboard will travel all over the city from 1/11 through 1/18, from Readville to Charlestown through Roxbury, from Brighton to Dorchester through Jamaica Plain, and from East Boston to City Hall via the school department.

On January 18th the billboard will spend its day near and around city hall and the school district HQ, as it prepares to meet us at Court St. at 5:00, for a rally outside district headquarters. We are asking our members to rally outside the school committee meeting at 5:00 on Wednesday 1/18, from 5-6:30, for a rally. Our message: Talk to Teachers.
