political rally

Educators are standing up and standing together in 2024. This election is extremely important for our educators, students and schools. 9 out of 10 schools in Minnesota are facing a significant educator shortage. Now more than ever, we need elected leaders who take this issue seriously, and who pledge to seriously invest in educator pay, pensions, healthcare and working conditions so that we can have the quality schools our educators, students and communities deserve.https://www.eventleaf.com/Attendee/Attendee/EventPage?eId=qQnIjH5saDVnQ…
