Tuesday, 2/25, SMEA is encouraging all members to work their contractual hours and wear their blue union shirts! Have a great week!

Amazing speech, Josh Crouse! Our teachers deserve a modest raise and retirement benefits! Let’s show the city of San Marcos that our teachers matter!

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person, or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." -Barack Obama

3 out of 10 California educators need to work a second job to make ends meet.

One job should be enough!

SMEA educators deserve better!

SMEA teachers are standing strong at the district office, demanding the fair contract we rightfully deserve!

Are you willing to accept:

• Lack of respect?

• Less prep time?

• Reduced take-home pay starting in January?

• Larger class sizes?

• No district provided retirement benefits if hired after 2007?

• Remaining workload concerns for SPED and Related Services?

We can’t put students first if we put teachers last.
