Thursday, May 16th - Educators Of Color Meet Up
As educators of color in Federal Way schools, we believe in providing opportunities for members of color to get together, network, and make connections with one another. There are district and union initiatives at the local, state, and national levels to eliminate institutionalized racism; FWEA believes that members of color ought to be integral in this decision-making.​  RSVP here.  

Tuesday, May 21st - Student Loan Forgiveness Seminar
Our local and national unions know student loan debt is a critical issue for our members. We bargain hard for professional compensation salary, and we can also work together to ensure you save as much of your hard earned salary as possible.  Our expert Teresa Muench from NEA Member Benefits will walk us through the process of Loan Forgiveness. This program stemmed from NEA's "Degrees Not Debt" Campaign through NEA members' advocacy around lowering the student loan debt. ESPs and certificated members are welcome.  RSVP here.  

Thursday, May 22nd - LGBTQ Meet Up
It is fundamental to ensure our schools are safe, welcoming and affirming for all.  Are you passionate about LGBTQ equity?  Come join other like-minded educators, share experience, gain resources, and chart the plan ahead.   RSVP here.
