Episode Synopsis

The OEA recently surveyed its members and the results are staggeringly clear; COVID is still an issue in our schools and educators desperately need our support. President Katherine Bishop and Vice President Cari Elledge look at the numbers and provide perspective on the human lives they represent.

Then newly named associate executive director of legislative and political organizing, Ivy Riggs, returns to the podcast to talk about an exciting opportunity provided by OEA called "Run the Race," which will provide free training to members considering a run for an elected position. It can be statewide to a local school board race. Republican, Democrat, Independent, we don't care. As long as you have a desire to help children.
