We Can’t Wait

In 2025, SDEA members are bargaining our next contract & fighting for the schools our students deserve!
What we’re fighting for:
- The We Can’t Wait bargaining platform was built by members, informed by the community, and aligned with a statewide fight!
- Ratified by an overwhelming 98% of SDEA members at November & December 2024 union meetings
- Shared with the community through family flyering in January & walk-ins in February 2025.
- Presented to the SDUSD School Board on January 28, 2025 to “Sunshine” – the official beginning of negotiations!
