Layoff Hearings
===============
The layoff hearings will be held on April 8, 9 and 10, at the Everett
Middle School Auditorium from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Everett MS is
located at 450 Church Street, between 16th and 17th Streets. We
encourage all laid-off teachers to attend all three days so as to be
available to correct factual errors and to introduce testimony on their
behalf or on the behalf of others.
Any respondent in the layoff hearings should attend all three days of
the hearings regardless of the scheduling of the BTSA sessions.
Counsel for the San Francisco Unified School District has acknowledged
that the layoff hearings have priority over any BTSA session. The
district just informed UESF that the BTSA meetings scheduled for
Tuesday and Wednesday of next week are canceled. All teachers will be
notified on Monday of the cancellation of these two sessions.
Volunteer to Help Pass Proposition A
You can do your part to help pass Proposition A by coordinating with
colleagues at your school site to choose a night to phonebank and a day
to precinct walk. Our goal is to have each school site sign up for at
least one phonebank night and one precinct walk day. Details below:
Phone Bank
Every week UESF will run a phonebank Monday-Thursday through the June
3rd election day. Each phonebank will take place at the UESF office
(2310 Mason St. [map]) from 5:00-7:30 p.m. Dinner will be provided.
Please call UESF Political Director Ken Tray at 956-8373 or email
ktray@uesf.org to sign up.
Neighborhood Precinct Walk
Join Our First Precinct Walk for Proposition A
- Saturday, April 5
Every Saturday through June 3rd UESF will hold a neighborhood precinct
walk. We will meet at Civic Center Secondary School (727 Golden Gate
Ave. [map] Ð Parking from McAllister St.) at 9:30 a.m. and fan out to
targeted neighborhoods throughout the city. The walks will generally
last until approximately 1:00 p.m.
DonÕt worry if youÕve never participated in a neighborhood walk. Strong
coffee, a light breakfast, and training will help get you up to speed.
Bring your co-workers and parents from your school.
Contact Ken Tray to Tray at 956-8373 or email ktray@uesf.org to sign up.
