We are reaching out to fellow WEA members and community supporters because we need your help. The Physical and Occupational Therapists organized in 2019 to improve their working conditions. Winchester is paying their OT & PT staff $20,000 to $40,000 less annually than the ten communities they compare us to for salary studies. Our group has consistently asked to be included in the Unit A contract. Unfortunately, the district has vehemently denied our request. Recently, the district offered us an agreement that would require us to forfeit our fundamental union benefits and decrease our salaries significantly.

We know that with the backing of our union siblings and community supporters, we can get the district to settle a fair contract. As educators we want to work in partnership with our community to foster a respectful work environment for our staff and a healthy learning environment for our children. We respectfully ask for your support. Kindly, sign our petition to support our accretion into Unit A.
