SHERIDAN EDUCATORS UNITED FOR OUR SCHOOLS

All Sheridan Educators- Licensed & Classified-won’t back down in our fight for our contract and for our schools!

On July 31st, the Sheridan Educators Association contract with the Sheridan School District expired. Since then, the District has refused to bargain a successor agreement to in good faith and instead tried to force educators to give up their rights to speak out, pulled payroll deduction, and is retaliating against educators who have spoken out.

Our fight is the struggle for the schools our Sheridan students deserve. United across job categories, and standing side-by-side with our students and parents- We know we are…

Sheridan Educators Association Timeline

What happened in Sheridan did not happen overnight.

From stalled bargaining and an expired contract to imposed policies, union-busting tactics, community pushback, and a 98% strike authorization vote, each section shows how Sheridan educators were pushed to this moment while continuing to stand together for the schools and working conditions students deserve.
