“Today represents a very significant step in our efforts to create lasting educational equity and a fairer and more prosperous future for our state. These recommendations are a pathway to expanding career and technical education programs, hiring more educators, increasing educator pay, and more equitably funding our public schools. We look forward to working with the General Assembly in the coming months to build on these recommendations and pass a new funding formula to ensure that every student in every neighborhood has a great public school. We need to act during the 2020 legislative session because our kids can’t wait,” said Baltimore County elementary school teacher and MSEA President Cheryl Bost.

In January, MSEA members will elect the MSEA Treasurer, one NEA Director, four MSEA Directors, and the state delegation that will represent Maryland at the NEA Representative Assembly in Atlanta, GA on July 2-7. Active members may run to serve in these positions.
