At the last bargaining session, we directly asked the district team if reducing the furlough days to 5 is an inability to pay or an unwillingness to pay. The answer ~ “Unwillingness to pay”   Kelli Moors ~ kmoors@carlsbadusd.net Elisa Williamson ~ ewilliamson@carlsbadusd.net Lisa Rodman ~ lrodman@carlsbadusd.net Ann Tanner ~ atanner@carlsbadusd.net Veronica Williams ~ vwilliams@carlsbadusd.net

CUTA’S speech to the school board ~ May 9, 2012

Today we gather to celebrate those who represent the best in us.  Today we honor people whose efforts and dedication have produced measurable and lasting positive influences on their students.  Today we honor and acknowledge teachers and the students they serve.  And so I find it heartbreaking that, instead of standing here extolling the amazing [...]

Teanna Evans’ (and Sue Wooley’s) Speech to the Board Teanna ~ RIF’d teacher at CHM, and Sue ~ rescinded teacher at CHM

Seven years ago, I came to this district in hopes of growing and developing my practice, a practice that I whole heartedly believed that if you educated the young on how to make informed decisions, we could have a nation of change. I left behind my tenure and willingly took a pay cut to work [...]

CUTA President’s Speech to the School Board ~ March 28, 2012

For the last 8 years, the over 500 members of Carlsbad Unified Teachers Association have tried to approach agreements with the district in a deliberate and measured manner, thus countering the panicky “the sky is falling” approach this district has employed year after year.  And now that we are, in fact, facing true financial challenges, [...]

Jeff Spanier’s Speech to the Board ~ March 28, 2012

The Carlsbad community is being misled. In the last board meeting, the district office shared data to explain revenue and expenses.  One of the pie charts shared indicates the cost of Sage Creek High School.  However, the very thin slice illustrated is not the operating cost of Sage Creek High School at all.  It is [...]
