Advocating for Change

In every corner of Vermont, we’re with you, fighting for our students. Fighting for our future.
We need to dismantle unjust systems. We need to fully fund public schools. We need to hold our elected leaders accountable to our communities. And we need your help to make it happen.
Ready to help us improve classroom conditions, secure school funding, and advance social and racial justice for all? Here’s how you can get involved.

Vermont Educators' Bill of Rights

As Vermont educators, you deserve to be paid a good wage, work in safe classrooms, and be allowed to collaborate with your colleagues as you teach the state’s children. Pledge your support now for Vermont Educators’ Bill of Rights.

Learn. Act. Vote.

Our students deserve our support. The best way to do right by Vermont’s kids is to invest in strong public schools that provide opportunities for ALL students. We know that schools with high quality teachers and support professionals; art, music, sports, and other offerings; strong academic programs; and extra support for students who need it are what we all want for our students and our communities. This spring, you have a chance to show your support for Vermont’s local public schools. And while we know that all the talk this year is about exploding tax rates, we know we can’t afford NOT to do right by Vermont’s students – our state’s future. So this spring, we invite you to learn, act, and vote.

School Funding

Educators, parents, and communities are uniting for better school funding for our students.

Compensation

You shouldn’t have to choose between following your passion and making a living.
