Wow, this hearing on SB 178 is a stellar line up of teachers from across the state- Sen John Ford bill that would allow teachers to bargain more than salary and benefits. This is what makes teachers stay - more prep time, health & safety concerns, class-size limits. @ISTAmembers
SB 167 was scheduled to be heard for amend and vote at tomorrow's Senate Education Committee. However, we have learned that the bill has been removed from the agenda for further work on bill amendments.

Our @IPSSchools team is devastated to learn of the passing of Ann Wilkins. Ann was a longtime IPS teacher & our @ISTAmembers representative. She was a passionate advocate for public education. This picture was taken on the day we discovered we shared the same birthday! (1/2)
At a state budget committee meeting today, both Sen. Mishler and Rep. T. Brown voiced support for giving public schools a one-year waiver and allow full funding for students attending virtually. Many districts were at risk of being funded at only 85 percent for those students.
