One of the most underrated professions in America is nursing.
Nurses don't just help you live, they make you want to live.
This National Nurses Week, let's celebrate and appreciate all they do to provide compassionate care.
We are grateful to the School Social Workers who RISE for their students, families, and school communities. Thank a School Social Worker today for #SSWweek2023#WeRise2023

“We felt like we were near the finish line but had the rugs pulled out from under us,” said WTA President Barbara Locke.
Negotiations stalled at around 11:55 p.m. Friday.

The WTA negotiation team was near finalizing a tentative agreement late Friday night when, minutes before midnight, Mayor Scott Galvin rejected boilerplate return-to-work language that would have ensured a settlement tonight.
In the last 25 years, wages for college graduates have risen 28%. Wages for teachers during the same period, only 2%.
We’re calling on states and districts to increase teacher pay. It’s time our teachers saw the support and pay they deserve.
Livable wage = Respect.
@michaelmulrenan As a SC member, please reach out to your colleagues and support a living wage for the wonderful and talented paraprofessionals who work so hard for these programs and all students! https://t.co/Du8HhVJMPm
