Dear PFT Members,

As we close out the final week of school before a well-deserved break, I want to thank you for your ongoing solidarity, your commitment to our students, and for being part of our collective fight for a better tomorrow. Take a look back at just some of our 2022 here.

I hope that the time off is filled with joy and rejuvenation. The holidays can be challenging for many, and if that is the case for you, know that I am holding you in my thoughts. 

Our office is closed beginning 12/24/22, and we will reopen 1/3/23. 

With warmest wishes and solidarity forever,

Jerry

Dear Members,

Like so many of you, I still wake up on the first day back to school with excitement and anticipation--and today was no different! I was delighted to join two fantastic celebrations of the return to school; Councilmember Helen Gym and I joined staff, students, parents, and community partners to kick the day off at Dobbins CTE and Duckrey Elementary. The enthusiasm was contagious. 

I hope you'll take a moment to watch this quick video of the morning. 

In it, you'll hear from Councilmember Gym and me about the year ahead, and you will also hear really great remarks from Dobbins
