Pinellas County Teachers Association urges district to support pay raises

The Pinellas County Teachers Association and the Pinellas Educational Support Professionals Association (PESPA) urged district leaders to support pay raises for teachers. The two unions represent about 10,000 employees within Pinellas County Schools. Members held a press conference on Tuesday. The unions plan to go back to the bargaining table with the school district as early as June, but no date has been set yet.
