Over 150 educators and community members gathered for the Springfield Education Association’s end of the year celebration. The Springfield Education Association had the pleasure of awarding our Joan Cormack and Meline Kasparian Scholarships to a set of very deserving awardees. In addition, we shared some stories of success from this school year. Our political education committee has been regularly sending members to school committee and interacting with local and state officials. Our immigration committee continues to work tirelessly to build a support network across our schools. Members of our organizing committee have been working alongside low-incidence educators to secure grant funding to support the work they do in their classrooms. Pre-K educators throughout the district have coordinated their efforts to defend the victories in our contract. Members organized a conference to highlight the work we’ve done to advance racial equity. And so much more. Through our collective action this year we’ve been able to demonstrate our capacity to work on multiple fronts, with no signs of slowing down. The work continues to build a Springfield and a society which prioritizes the schools that our students deserve.

Yesterday, on May Day, Springfield Educators marched down the streets of Holyoke with a collation of labor unions and political activists to celebrate the legacy of the day and to protest the current political and economic system that is captive to a billionaire class and which produces inequality for our students and our communities. Our students are facing housing insecurity due to a system which prioritizes keeping wages low and rents high. They face food insecurity, with some relying on the meals provided to them at school for adequate nutrition. Our communities are being terrorized and our student’s families are being ripped apart by agents empowered by a government which openly wishes to do them harm. Our children can’t be the best students they can be in the classroom when the world outside it is stacked against them. Our community deserves dignity, safety, and stability. This is why we march. That is why we, the educators of Springfield, will continue to act. For our students, our families, and our community.

We call on members of the school committee to listen to educator feedback and change the calendar. On Thursday 4/2 the SEA released a Survey about the recently released 2026-2027 School Year Calendar after one-on-one conversations between staff and union reps had indicated this may be a widely and deeply felt issue. Since then over 1,200 staff have taken the survey with 83% indicating dissatisfaction with the calendar with 85% of dissatisfied respondents indicating that they’d prefer less time off over Winter Break and more time off in Summer. Overall, the survey reveals that staff are concerned about the length of Summer Break, it’s proximity to Summer School, how an extended Winter Break may disrupt routines of our students, and how an extended Winter break impacts the livelihood of our peers with hourly wages. The school calendar is on the agenda for tomorrow’s (4/9) School Committee Meeting. Educators: Follow the link in the flyer or below to RSVP to attend School Committee and take further action. https://tinyurl.com/5dvrku5a

Yesterday a coalition of community and labor groups, including representatives of the SEA, protested in Boston against proposed tax breaks that would effectively cancel out the Fair Share Amendment win. The Fair Share Amendment, which was won through the work of labor leaders and the mobilization of the working class, has raised billions of dollars to fund schools, roads, and public transit. As SEA President Riley Hernandez states, “the Fair Share Amendment was an opportunity for workers to say ‘we want an economy that works for us’”. The Mass High Tech Council wants to strip away this win for the working class with their ballot initiative and proposed cut on personal income tax from 5% to 4%. This initiative would create a projected $5 billion deficit to the state budget which would have a disastrous impact on Massachusetts Public Schools. Learn more https://mhtrevealed.com

SEA President Riley Hernandez warns the Springfield School Committee of the issues present in the establishment of the Innovation Schools of Springfield Public Schools (Innovation Zone). 8 schools in Springfield have been elevated out of underperforming status by the State as a result of the diligent work of educators in those schools improving student outcomes. Unfortunately, SPS has passed an Innovation Prospectus, the document that establishes these transitioning schools as “Innovation Schools”, with language in it that threatens the collective bargaining rights of these dedicated educators and makes their futures unclear. In order to effectively transition these schools, a 2/3 majority of teachers need to vote to become an innovation school. If SPS wants to ensure these schools effectively transition, the school committee must urge the District to agree that the conditions of the prospectus will be bargained in 2028 as part of the SPS CBA. Listen to the full speech by following the linkTree in our bio.

On Thursday 1/29 six Springfield Educators addressed the school committee on a variety of concerns impacting our schools. Educators working in low-incidence classrooms (classes serving students with exceptional disabilities) raised the concern that student needs are not being met due to poor infrastructure, insufficient staffing, and underfunding. As a result, the safety of students and educators are at risk. An educator informed the school committee about GIC health insurance changes which would increase costs for all municipal employees and asked them to take action at the state level. SEA President Riley Hernandez urged the school committee to secure an agreement which protects and clarifies the collective bargaining rights of educators working in schools leaving the Empowerment Zone and entering SPS control. A preK educator indicated the need for Springfield Public Schools to respect the contract and adjust the district calendar to reflect the days at the beginning and end of the school year that PreK need to properly sanitize their classrooms. Watch the complete set of speeches by following the link in our bio, “Springfield School Committee 1/29/2026 Public Speak Out”.

Update 12/2: Over night, a judge signed off on an emergency habeas corpus, preventing the father from having to fly out today. SPRINGFIELD PUBLIC SCHOOLS EDUCATORS: Many SPS parents and family members have faced detention and deportation since the immigration enforcement crackdown starting last winter. Now an elementary SPS student herself is facing deportation, along with her beloved mother and father, tomorrow Tuesday, December 2. Her father is currently in process to receive a visa available to survivors of labor trafficking so there is an urgent campaign to call our congress people today to ask them to intervene and pause the deportation until his visa is processed. There is a real opportunity to intervene and change the course of this case. Here are two things you can do: 1. Take a quick moment NOW to sign the letter and call our congressional offices to ask them to take action. Sign The Letter: forms.gle/iKZr36aXhfLFXVtu9 Call scripts: docs.google.com/document/d/12Rmuv9ZY4mJNbrOAgDvptmkiC_iGq8ymEGMZBe3uQDo/edit?usp=drivesdk 2.

Being a union member is in the culture of being a Springfield Public Schools Educator. The educators at Mary Lynch Elementary embody this notion. Through their 100% union participation and their organizing at the building-level, they have been able to create material changes that have had positive impacts at their school. Most recently, educators worked together and with their building rep to enforce start and end times that are protected by the contract. When we organize, we win!
