The ESEA has launched the "SOS: SPTAS Organizing SPTAS" campaign to advocate for Specialized Programs Teacher Assistants (SPTAs) who are leaving their positions in the Clark County School District (CCSD) due to inadequate compensation and a lack of support and professional development. The campaign seeks to raise awareness and improve working conditions for SPTAs, and encourages interested paraprofessionals to join their new organizing committee.

ESEA is calling on both current and prospective members to join the SPTA Committee and be a part of the "S.O.S." (SPTA's Organizing SPTA's) initiative!

At ESEA, we believe in transparency and keeping our members informed. We also want prospective members to understand the vital role ESEA plays in advocating for your interests. Here's an overview of common questions regarding our contract negotiations with the Clark County School District (CCSD).

ESEA statement on the recent incident at Von Tobel Middle School.

Public schools will receive an additional $250 million.

Staff will no longer be required to check in for daily symptom monitoring as of Sept. 26, 2022.

The agreement will provide $2,000 to covered employees.

“The partnership between ESEA and Teamsters 14 made these $2,000 retention bonuses happen; we have demanded respect and our combined union power is helping to raise the standards for working families in Nevada.”

ESEA President calls eliminated employees the "backbone" of the successful program.

ESEA did not organize or have any involvement, says ESEA President Jan Giles.
