The WTU supports the reopening of our schools, but they must reopen only when it is safe for our students, our teachers and our communities. Join with us in asking Mayor Bowser and DCPS Chancellor Lewis Ferebee to work with us to ensure protocols are in place and fully met to ensure the health of our school communities prior to reopening our schools.
Please read our petition and add your name.

School Year 20-21 Budget
Your Voice is Needed NOW! Help us ensure our schools receive the funding they need for next school year.
We understand that making budget choices in a pandemic economy is challenging, but city leaders should look to the Great Recession as a cautionary tale for what can happen if we reverse investments in our schools. Nationally, less funding led to worse academic outcomes and massive layoffs of school staff, consequences that would only prolong our city’s recovery.
Help us ensure our Teacheres and Our Students have what they need to succeed in the next school year.
