Teach in this district?
Sick of watching your School Board give big raises to the Superintendent while teachers get scraps?
This year, send a message to the School Board that teachers are as important as the Superintendent.
We hope that you will use the information on our website to find a better district or State to teach in.
However:
If you plan to return to your current district, HOLD your signed contract until June 12-14 before returning it. (all Wisconsin contracts due Saturday June 15)
Make your district commit to a LARGE raise IF they want your contract returned earlier.
If EVERY Wisconsin teacher in Districts like this one united in HOLDING their signed contracts until 3 days before the deadline, we could accomplish better raises for EVERYONE by compressing the time school districts have to recruit and sign teachers to staff schools for SY 2024-25.
Stand Together!!! Rise Together!!!
