🍎 LPSS Educators: Let’s Connect this Wednesday! 🍏

Our schools only work because we do. If you want a stronger voice, better support, and a community of peers who have your back, it’s time to get involved.

Whether you’re a longtime member, recently joined, or just curious about what we’re building together for Lafayette Parish schools, we want you in the conversation.

🗓 When: This Wednesday at 5:00 PM

📍 Where: Google Meet (send a message for the link)

💬 What: We’ll be discussing upcoming goals, how we can support each other this semester, and how we build a stronger union together.

Why show up?
Because local decisions impact our classrooms every day. Every single voice adds power to our collective message. Bring a colleague from your school who isn't a member yet—let’s grow our strength in numbers!

📢 LPSS Educators: Your Voice, Our Vision!
What happens in our classrooms should be decided by the people in them. 🍎

Whether you’ve been at the whiteboard for twenty years or you’re just finishing your first year in Lafayette Parish, you know that our strength is in our numbers. We are more than just a union; we are the heartbeat of our schools.

We’re meeting this Wednesday to talk about the future of our profession and we want you in the room.

🗓️ THE DETAILS
WHEN: This Wednesday, May 13th

TIME: 5:00 pm

WHERE: LPAE Office or Google Meet

WHO: Current or future members

🚀 WHY SHOW UP?
We have big long-term goals, but we get there by winning together now. We’ll be discussing:

Current issues in insurance and policy.

Strength in Community: Meet your colleagues from across the Parish and find out how we’re supporting one another.

"If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together."

Bring a colleague! Every new face makes our collective voice louder. Let’s show Lafayette what happens when teachers stand united.

Teacher Appreciation Week begins tomorrow! Let’s show our dedicated teachers how much we appreciate them by transforming appreciation into ACTION. That means respect, fair wages, and a voice at the table when decisions about our schools and students’ futures are made.

Here are some ways to turn your APPRECIATION into ACTION:
💙 Support collective bargaining rights in your state. Educators earn more—24% more, on average—where they have strong unions and the freedom to bargain collectively.
💙 Vote for pro-public education candidates for your school board, state house, and U.S. Congress.
💙 Speak up for teachers at school board meetings. Ensure their voices and needs are heard by local leaders who decide funding, salaries, benefits, class sizes, and more.

Last night, the Lafayette Parish School Board approved a resolution in support of Amendment 3, a step toward making permanent teacher pay raises a reality. While the Board’s support is a win, the real work happens at the ballot box this May.

When we speak with one voice, they listen. Imagine what we can achieve when we have a seat at the table.
