Join us at BESC (501 N. Dixon- 1 block north of Broadway, near the Coliseum) on Monday, April 26th at 6 pm, as we rally in support of our PFTCE brothers and sisters that will been so badly affected by the re-alignment of both the ESL and SPED departments!
I hope to see HUNDREDS of you at Monday’s Rally at the School Board (6 PM)! This could be the most important Union action undertaken by PFTCE in years. The media will be there to cover the High School redesign presentation, and our presence will be KNOWN, and our voices will be HEARD! Remember the old adage…“There IS strength in NUMBERS!”
Please copy and distribute our Rally flyer, and make certain that the teaching staff, and other classified employees in your building, particularly those in SPED and ESL, receive copies. We would love to have them join us!
Oregon AFL-CIO President Tom Chamberlain will be attending our rally, and will speak to the School Board. He will address the issues of a Fair Living Wage. We are delighted that he will be a part of this action!
Don’t forget…parking will be limited on Monday evening. Plan on carpooling, or, better yet, take the Tri-Met bus or MAX! Come early! We’ll hope for sunshine, but if it’s raining, be sure to dress appropriately, and bring umbrellas. Our informational picketing will take us out into the open as we march in front of BESC!
