RedForEd Teacher Walkout April 26th 2018

By Vicki | April 20, 2018 |

Red for Ed

 

The teachers have been speaking with the governor and the government to have more funding for schools and higher salaries. While Governor Ducey has made promises to fund education and increase pay by 20% by the year 2020, a majority of teachers would like to see this happen sooner and see more. RedForED will require some help from our local businesses, churches and groups!

Since the walkout is looming, many businesses have stepped up to the challenge and are welcoming children into their businesses, groups and churches. Many of the places will have some fees, but children will be safe and cared for should the walkout close schools. Please call to check availability for childcare for the RedForEd Camps!

Also, we are on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and will continue to find out more information! Thanks for following!
