Announcement Message

Dear SFUSD Community:

As part of my commitment to keeping you informed, I am sharing today’s update on our ongoing negotiations between the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) and United Educators of San Francisco (UESF).

At this time, SFUSD does not yet have a current agreement in place with UESF, which represents many of our dedicated educators and staff who serve our students every day, including teachers, substitutes, paraeducators, counselors, social workers, nurses, and more. 

To help you stay informed, please review this fact sheet which includes updates about:

  • Where we are in the negotiating process and what you can expect next
  • Our progress toward fiscal stability
  • Next Steps

As of today, schools remain open unless families are notified otherwise. While a strike remains a possibility, my sincere hope is that we can avoid any disruption to learning. Keeping our students in the classroom and supporting families is my top priority. I have heard the deep concerns from our families who do not want to see schools closed. My team and I are working hard to reach a fair agreement that is centered on what is best for students while also preparing responsibly in the event of any disruption. I recognize that uncertainty is stressful, and will provide as much notice as possible in the event of a strike. 

Thank you for your ongoing support of San Francisco’s students and public schools.

 

Warm regards,

Dr. Maria Su

SFUSD Superintendent
