🚨🚨REMINDER🚨🚨
We need to send a clear, unified message: Bristol must invest in education and support our teachers.

Your presence is crucial because we are the most trusted stakeholders in the school system who provide essential classroom-level expertise.
We know the harmful effects these cuts will have on an already "bare bones" school system, and we need to show up to support our colleagues at this time.

Please make every effort to join us in person or on Zoom at the important budget meetings below (agendas for each meeting with Zoom links are in the email)

💙 The union thanks you in advance for showing up and showing support for one another!
