Contracts have to be negotiated to benefit teachers and taxpayers, but with the best interests of our children as the primary goal. Our group has the momentum to go statewide. If we can all work together, our voices will be loud, succinct and carry the weight of the people not only to Harrisburg but to Washington as well.

I hope the contract is fair and equitable to everybody. Then, we can move forward and mend some of the fences that have been broken.
