Please help us save our BSW teachers!  As of January 4th, some of our long standing teachers at BSW will have to make the difficult choice of staying at BSW or moving on because of a pending contract change.  Due to the proposed contract change, teachers who are Green Card holders will be losing many of their benefits.  As a result, these teachers will not be able to afford to stay in the US without the current benefits attached to their salaries.  Students and parents will be forced to say goodbye to many great teachers, some of whom have been a part of BSW from its inception.  Not only will this proposed contract change result in the loss of current teachers, it will no doubt lead to an overall high turnover rate in our teaching staff in the years to come.  The majority of teachers whom are currently effected, or will be effected in the future, want to stay.  They are an integral part of the life, learning and community of BSW!


Please take a moment to sign our petition and show WCL how we, as a parent community, value our teaches at BSW.

The school administration remains silent despite our constant pressure. Call the BSW board office this morning and demand that they protect our teachers instead of cutting their benefits.

The momentum behind this petition is undeniable and shows exactly how much our community values these teachers. Now is the time to turn this energy into action by emailing your representatives directly to demand a change in their contract policy.

Total incompetence from the admin. Keeping good staff is how a school functions. Stop being cheap and do the right thing.

Ridiculous to lose such great educators over a contract dispute. BSW is going to see kids leave in droves if this keeps up.

These teachers are the heart of the school. How can they just cut benefits like this? It is so wrong.

So unfair for the teachers who have given years to this place. Really disappointed in the leadership right now.
