PPS is not allowing staff with COVID to use quarantine leave. Sign this petition to tell @Super_GGuerrero to provide COVID-19 leave to all staff who have COVID so we can ensure our schools are as safe and healthy as possible.

PPS diverts $$ that could go to reducing class sizes, restorative justice, hiring a nurse, librarian & social worker for all schools, but PPS spends $$ on consultants & for profit companies. Educators deserve to be treated as professionals & students deserve fully funded schools.

Zero bullets used against this mass murderer to de-escalate the threat gives us another clear example of racism and police brutality in America, they aren’t afraid of Black people … obviously law enforcement and white supremacist just inherently feel justified in killing us.

Today we recognize 246 years of white male terrorism, corporate exploitation and a grand democratic illusion.

We should take an honest assessment of this nation today— and then we should repent.

Yes! Let’s actually care for our students.

Yes! It’s always better to invest in our students and teachers.

[Jessie Singer @JessieSingerNYC]

Public school funding reduces crime. Students exposed to more public school funds are less likely to be arrested as adults.

So, the unconscionable budget that City Council just passed -- which cuts school funding to aid the NYPD -- might actually increase crime.

How did you celebrate #lovingday yesterday?

[Ryan Ken @Ryan_Ken_Acts]

It kinda amuses me when white people don’t want non-white people in their sci-fi/fantasy when most of those stories are just allegories about how non-white people are treated. For a certain type of white fan, I think the real fantasy appeal is getting to imagine you’re resilient.

[theliberatededucator @ThatSoftQueen]

Everyone is envious of teachers having summers off. We are in recovery. I know y'all have seen the memes and posts about it...it's FACTS...

An important part of our history. Thank you for highlighting this @KhanhPhamForOR on this Memorial Day.

[Khanh Pham for Oregon @KhanhPhamForOR]

On this Memorial Day, as part of our #AAPIHeritageMonth series, we take a look at who is given the opportunity to serve and what it means to serve your country, especially when your government does not see you as one of its own – a familiar plight for far too many Americans.

PAT reminding PPS Board that non-student facing administrators more than tripled in the last 6 years.

[Solidarity with PPS Teachers (PDX, OR) @PATcommunityPDX]

@Super_GGuerrero says they are using $$ to lower class size. Is this based on the numbers as negotiated by Portland Teachers Association or the numbers made up by the Board?

[Solidarity with PPS Teachers (PDX, OR) @PATcommunityPDX]

The community has shown up for teachers, custodians, health care workers in schools. Please listen @Super_GGuerrero

[Solidarity with PPS Teachers (PDX, OR) @PATcommunityPDX]

You can watch the PPS Board meeting online. Hear what @Super_GGuerrero has to say about their decision about how to spend this money. Does he want to care for students or administrators??

Tonight is our last chance to let @Super_GGuerrero that smaller class sizes are best for STUDENTS. Put money into classrooms, not administrators and consultants. SHOW UP!! 8 pm is the budget discussion. 501 N Dixon.
