The Washington-Caldwell school district is located in rural Racine County in an area filled with right wing Republicans who were Standing With Walker from 2010-2018 to denigrate teachers and use the "tools" of Act 10 to erase 50 years of improvements to teacher salaries, benefits, and working conditions. 

Today, this area is filled MAGA Republicans, with more Trump or FJB flags flying than American flags.

With one of the lowest average teacher salaries in Racine County that didn't keep up with inflation since 2011, we rate career employment potential for this school district as a DEAD END job.

No???

Sick of the School Board Lavishing Big Raises on the Superintendent While Screwing Teachers?

Time to Send a Message to the School Board.....

Without a Guarantee of a BIG RAISE for signing your contract for the 2024-25 SY,

Make your School District WAIT until the week of June 12th to return your contract.

All contracts due by Saturday June 15th.

This is one of over 200 Wisconsin school districts  have SCREWED teachers (50,000+) since 2011 while giving MASSIVE pay raises to the Superintendent.  

Make your District value YOUR RETURN for next year as much as they value the Superintendent. 

Unless they offer at least a CPI raise for all teachers,

Hold off on returning your signed contract until June 12-14th.
