Tell The Emergency Manager: "Enough Is Enough."
Emergency Manager Darnell Earley
Budget Cuts. Failed Reforms. Detroit’s Public Schools have seen it all in recent years, and the results have been devastating. Through it all, however, Detroit’s teachers and support staff have remained dedicated to educating our students.
But now, the Emergency Manager wants to cut their health care benefits, costing our teachers and staff thousands more each year.
For many, this will make working in Detroit’s Public Schools completely unaffordable.
We don’t have to lose these great teachers and staff. Sign the petition today, and tell Emergency Manager Darnell Earley that our community, our students and our educators can’t afford these cuts.
They simply can’t.

Every single day Detroit public school teachers and staff work hard to help our students succeed. They’ve gone years without a pay raise, bought school supplies out of their own pocket, and sacrificed to help our kids get the education they deserve.
The proposed cut to health care benefits, however, is a sacrifice they cannot afford. This cut would force hundreds of great teachers and staff to leave our public schools, while making it nearly impossible to attract talented new professionals to the district.
The results would be devastating to our kids and our community.
We ask that you immediately reconsider this drastic cut, and work with our teachers, staff, parents, and community members who have offered alternatives and solutions to help move our schools forward.
