President's Perspective
by Kevin Marshall, President

Thank You and Don't Stop Now

I want to thank each and every member that attended the recent School Board meetings, especially those that spoke from their hearts during Citizens' Comments. The show of support and solidarity was a strong message; however, we are not done yet. There is a long road ahead until the final budget is set in June. Teachers still need to show up and tell the members of the School Board what they think.

The Budget Research Team has done an excellent job in identifying ways to trim the budget that will keep cuts away from the classroom. The path lies before the School Board and they need to know that you support their decision to walk it, and the community needs to know that you support the Board in walking this path. To learn more about the path, follow the links on the right side of this page to the CSEA Perspective. To learn more about CSEA's recommendations to the District for possible global cuts, click here.

The budget discussions for District 11 are critical. The School Board is being faced with setting the budget and trying to set the trajectory for the district in the coming years. The voices of teachers and educators are more important than they have been in recent times. This is because you are experts on the cuts being suggested and made. Your voices are critical to guiding the elected leaders to the right decisions.

The community, the School Board and the district need to understand that you are keenly aware of what is going on and that you are concerned that good decisions are being made. Please continue to read our emails and respond to our surveys. They are critical for our Bargaining Team as we head into negotiations. We will continue to keep you posted.

See you around the campus!
