We cannot have excellent schools without excellent educators. I was the benefactor of outstanding teachers growing up. Our educators have only gotten better since then! They are more data driven, more student focused, and our teacher preparation programs have expanded to more equitable pipelines, even as those programs have focused on research-based teaching, learning, and assessment techniques. I will continue to partner with the Legislature to ensure that fully funding our schools also means fully compensating all of our public educators, and I define that broadly – teachers, para-educators, bus drivers, food service workers, principals, professional support staff, and every single job in our public schools.
Every education labor union in Washington state that endorsed in this OSPI race has solely endorsed our campaign - Public School Employees (SEIU 1948), Washington Education Association, American Federation of Teachers Washington, and SEIU 925. Please stand with educators on Team Reykdal!
