I can't believe it. For the first time in over a year, we open tomorrow night! "Leaving Iowa" performs Thursday and Friday in the JHS Theater at 7 p.m. Tickets are available at the door. This cast had done tremendous work, and we can't wait to share it with you! #OpeningNight

SB 2288 - a voucher bill that would have diverted public tax dollars to private schools was just defeated in the Senate. How did your Senator vote? https://t.co/8Mx86OGPsf

[Jamestown Education Association @ndujea]

Urgent Action: Floor vote likely today on SB 2288, a voucher bill. Act now! https://t.co/X3LrMTMxTv

SB 2215 Would Make Teacher Contract Negotiations Less Fair and Undermine Local Control.

[North Dakota United @NDUnited]

Teachers deserve respect. They deserve dignity. They deserve a fair shake at the bargaining table. Say no to SB 2215.

SB2215 shortens the negotiations window to June 1st, then it's automatically impasse. Send a message to the Senate Education Committee and tell them NO to this bad bill! https://t.co/OL5Qm9MfI1

@Nsoulis Congratulations, Nate!

[Jamestown Education Association @ndujea]

@TonyMcIntyre24 Your hard work will pay off. Looking forward to it!

[Jamestown Education Association @ndujea]

It's an important day, be sure and vote if you haven't already done so!

[Jamestown Education Association @ndujea]

Remember to vote! It's easy and important! Your voice matters.

[North Dakota United @NDUnited]

We packed the house! Thanks to all the current and former @ndujea members, retired teachers, and community members who came to negotiations last night! The next meeting is on June 27 at 5pm. #NDUnited #respectourteachers

@bistom @kellyhagen We are proud of our Health Insurance Committee - made up of teachers, ESP, admin, and board members - for all their work on this!

#NDU President @NDUNick answers a question from Sen. David Rust (Tioga) on SB 2228 which would put fall administrators conference to same days as DPI teachers conference.
Archuleta testified in support calling the bill a “win-win for teachers and their school districts.”

@robertlech The bill (HB 1347) is here for anyone to read:
https://t.co/y64zJsVL9g
Proposed amendments were not yet available.

[Jamestown Education Association @ndujea]

It's NOT reasonable to TAKE representation away from new teachers! Contact your legislators and tell them to vote NO on HB 1347. Nobody knows this issue better than teachers!

[North Dakota United @NDUnited]

Supt. Rob Lech from Jamestown says he believes HB 1347 seems reasonable for districts to fully assess a teachers strengths/weaknesses.

[Jamestown Education Association @ndujea]

@robertlech The bill itself still does leave to question: Why does it eliminate the requirement for school districts to detail the reasons for dismissing a teacher? This is unfair to the teacher.

[Jamestown Education Association @ndujea]

ACTION ALERT: This bill would negatively affect new teacher probationary periods and representation at dismissal hearings! The link below will take you to a contract page!

[Chad Oban @ChadOban]

Stand up for ND Teachers and tell the ND House Education committee to vote NO on HB1347. https://t.co/liY9DwIe1i
