AFT Action Day Across America - February 10th!  Wear BLUE!

On Tuesday of this week, teachers across America are going to wear blue to signify UNITY.

We need everyone to see us standing up for students and education -  it is time for our voices to be heard.  This is a small gesture but a powerful one if we all do it.

WEAR BLUE on Tuesday, February 10th!  It will be the start of more to come.

I also invite you to attend the Board of Education meeting at 807 in the Assembly Room starting at 5:30 that same day - February 10th. It is important for us to hear the discussions around the budget, for the Board of Ed to feel our presence, and to learn about actions being considered as we head into negotiations this Spring.

As always, thanks for your hard work, dedication, and for believing in MPS students.

Lynn Nordgren, President
Minneapolis Federation of Teachers
