May be an image of text that says 'NYC EDUCATORS WILL SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES AT NYC UNSAFE SCHOOLS DURING THE 21-22 REOPENING, HOW THIS IS AFFECTING OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITIES AND WHAT SOLUTIONS ARE NEEDED. EDUCATORS OF NYC AND INDEPENDENT COMMUNITY OF EDUCATORS EDUCATORS SPEAK UNSAFE EVENT OUT UTR FACEBOOOK LIVE NYC HOOLS WEDNESDAY, OCT 06TH @7PM RSVP: TOOUNSAFE.EDUCATORS.NYC'

Due to the fluid circumstances surrounding our schools concerning COVID-19, and various other events happening simultaneously, we've decided to move our next meet-up event to next Wednesday, October 6th, at 7 PM.

At this event, Educators of NYC and the Independent Community of Educators will team up to share educators' stories about the lax COVID-19 protocols and unsafe conditions. It will be a Zoom and Facebook Live event.

This is all framed on the heels of a recent internal UFT survey that shows that chapter leaders are overwhelmingly in consensus that protocols are not being followed with fidelity, along with a flawed COVID-19 testing program, relaxing of quarantine requirements, a poorly implemented vaccination program, refusal to provide a remote option, ongoing ventilation issues and a fluid city plan that changes almost weekly.

Do you have a story you want to share? Want to stay anonymous?

Send it to us via email to: info@educators.nyc

Please omit any identifying details within your story. We will have another educator read and share it during our online live event.

We look forward to seeing you this coming Wednesday.
