    Post: Substitute teachers organizing in Birmingham

    Posted by Kervin Fondren on 12/07/08

    I am serving as the first President of the Birmingham
    Professional Substitute Teachers Alliance working with
    certified substitute teachers in the Birmingham City
    Schools. The Birmingham City Schools district is one of
    the largest urban school districts in Alabama, and yet subs
    only get $60 a day with no benefits. I am organizing subs
    to meet in January to attain some collective bargaining
    efforts to increase benefits and get consistent
    professional development training for subs on the table. I
    will work closely with the National Substitute Teachers
    Alliance, Birmingham Education Association, Alabama
    Education Association and the local school board. We need
    qualitative substitutes not just a quantity of subs!
    Together WE can do more-what do you think???
