Thursday's picketing at Frontier Middle School in Moses Lake was inspiring -- with a majority of cars driving by honking their support of teachers receiving a fair contract. I also saw union leaders from Pasco, Richland, Warden, and others joining the MLEA in solidarity. This won't end well for district leaders, but the students will ultimately reap the benefits in the long term.

Solidarity with our colleagues in Moses Lake. They are on strike after working without a contract since September 1st!

A great story of WEA's new teacher residency program, which we piloted this year in Walla Walla, Mukilteo, and Federal Way.

Next year it will expand into College Place, Pasco, and a few other districts.

Fed up with persistent special education teacher shortages, a group of Washington teachers is trying a new approach to building up this workforce.
