FWEA stands in support of our colleagues, students, and others who have participated in protests supporting racial equality and civil justice. Educational equity is racial equity, and calling out institutional practices that have perpetuated inequality is necessary to bring about the systemic changes needed to ensure equal rights and equality of opportunity for every American.
Watch this video narrated by an FWEA member and outstanding elementary teacher - thanks, Jessica!
The legislative session is over, and state educators can breathe a temporary sigh of relief: the extreme anti-teacher and anti-public educataion bills were defeated this time, but they'll certainly reappear in one form or another in the next session. Thank you to the tens of thousands of people who their contacted legislators to support Indiana's teachers!
Watch this video to learn how reinstating full bargaining rights for Indiana's teachers will help turn around the state's growing teacher shortage and make stronger, healthier, and more successful public schools for all Hoosier children: teacher working conditions are student learning conditions!

Thanks to educators across the state for their continuing advocacy--particularly over the past few years. The level of funding restored to public schools is a direct result of this effort, but there is still much work to be done in order to restore full collective bargaining rights and stay vigilant to oppose legislation that would harm teachers, public schools, and Indiana's K-12 students.
