Mark your calendars! Next Friday after PD, join us at Park Station to cheers the new school year with your fellow AEA members! It’s our first “first Friday” happy hour of the school year - after all those meetings & prep, you know you’ll want a chance to unwind and connect with other amazing educators in Alameda Unified (and to meet your E-Board!). Solidarity and community go hand-in-hand!

This is huge!

We Won Paid Pregnancy Leave!

Starting January 1, 2027, California's school staff will have up to 14 weeks of PAID pregnancy disability leave. We fought hard for this and we did it together. Every one of us who shared our story, gathered signatures or showed up at the Capitol to fight for this leave made this happen. This legislation will transform the lives of California families for generations and we won it together.

Some educators at Encinal High School have begun assigning more in-class essays to "curtail the use of AI." Gene Kahane chats with EHS teacher Kevin McNulty about navigating the changing technological landscape in schools. "Students still light up when reading a good book," assures McNulty.
