DESCRIPTION:3/8 Women's Day Protest-UESF ‘Bread & Roses’ Speak Out at the Board of 
 Education\nMarch 8th: UESF ‘Bread & Roses’ Speak Out at the Board of 
 Education\nhttp://www.uesf.org/march8-speakout/#more-4645\nFollowing SFUSD 
 Denial of UESF Grievance on January Pay Raise\n\nGather at 5:30 p.m. @ 555 
 Franklin\nRSVP here\n\nJoin UESF elected women leaders and rank-and-file 
 activists as we gather for a “Bread and Roses speak out at the Board of 
 Education on March 8th, International Women’s Day.\n\nThe speak out has 
 been called following the SFUSD’s denial on Tuesday of the grievance we 
 filed on the district’s failure to implement the January wage increase 
 for all employees.\n\nAccording to district representatives, the 1.5% raise 
 will be included for the affected members starting with the next pay period 
 at the end of February. However, the SFUSD has not committed to back pay 
 for the raise that should have been included for the month of January. For 
 a typical teacher the amount in dispute is between $60-80.\n\nWhile $60-80 
 may not seem like such a big deal to those at 555 Franklin, it is a matter 
 of respect for the educators who do the work in the classroom, especially 
 as the affordability crisis rages out of control.\n\nIn addition to calling 
 on the Board to honor the agreed upon wage increase for all UESF members, 
 we will also call on the Board and the administration to properly budget 
 for wage reopeners this fall. The affordability crisis, coupled with the 
 growing teacher and para shortage, continues to undermine the stability of 
 our schools and negatively impact our students. Budgeting for wages that 
 give all UESF members, women and men included, a fighting chance to live in 
 the City in which we serve should be a priority for the SFUSD. Save the 
 date!\n\nMore on the January Pay Raise Grievance\n\nOn January 29th UESF 
 Senior Staff Rep Eric Hall filed a grievance with the district on their 
 decision not to implement the 1.5% wage increase for all members on January 
 1st, as stated in the contract. The grievance covers all TK-12 certificated 
 staff hired after 1994, all Early Education certificated staff, and any 
 other member who did not receive their pay raise.\n\nOn Tuesday, the UESF 
 office received a letter from the SFUSD Department of Labor Relations 
 denying the grievance. UESF will soon request mediation over the denied 
 grievance to attempt to resolve the matter. If unsuccessful, it is most 
 likely to go to arbitration.\n
