Join us this Thursday for our September virtual meeting at 5:30-6:30.
We know that support staff are typically the first to arrive at school as they unlock doors and turn on lights. They are some of the first people to greet students when they arrive at school in the morning, who give students the academic support they need to become successful scholars, who carefully assist with their health, safety, and nutritional needs, and are the last people who see students safely home at the end of the day. The value of their work is priceless.
So it’s time we start treating them that way! rESPect is a statewide campaign by ESPs, with the support of IEA staff, to improve working conditions by focusing on four areas: Wages, Health Insurance, Pensions, and Retention, Recruitment, and Job Duties. Join us to learn how you can help bring the change we need.
