To illuminate the real-world impact of teachers’ contracts, we’re inviting educators across the country to join us for a Where We Agree series of events, where we will dig in deeper on some of the top issues teachers have clamored for change around–and where contracts have delivered on that change.

For our first event on September 24, Where We Agree: Pathways for Increasing Teacher Pay, we want to honor the tenants of Labor Day by focusing first on the issue of differentiated compensation, sharing examples from district and union leaders, as well as teachers, about how the collective bargaining process resulted in successful compensation models in their schools.
