The first budget vote is TODAY. IMPACT was never negotiated and a new Task Force will only delay real change. Tell the DC Council to reject the IMPACT Task Force, fund what educators actually need, and protect our right to negotiate. Sign the letter and share with fellow educators and DCPS families. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/block-chair-mendelsons-impact-task-force

Huge gratitude to the WTU members at Noyes for standing strong and speaking out for safer schools. Your advocacy is how change happens.

Two raccoons fell through the hallway ceiling at Noyes Elementary School, while another popped out of a bookcase. Five raccoons total have been captured after a monthlong infestation, but teachers say the building still hasn't been properly cleaned -> https://www.wusa9.com/article/life/animals/noyes-elementary-school-raccoons-update/65-9e7e6a67-0c52-4128-871b-da669374e2ad?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook_WUSA_9
