Classified School Employee Appreciation Week (16-22)
AWARENESS
Classified School Employee Week celebrates the support staff and paraprofessionals who help our early childhood centers, schools, and colleges succeed. Classified employees perform essential work, but it is often behind the scenes. This is our week to put classified work front and center.
Classified School Employee Week is celebrated in the third full week in May of each year, Sunday through Saturday.
AFT Paraprofessional and School-Related Personnel Conference
Virtual Conference
California classified employees and support staff have known and loved this AFT professional issues conference for more than 40 years. And COVID-19 isn’t stopping the tradition. AFT PSRPs across the nation will be meeting virtually to share best practices, tactics and strategies for organizing, and the camaraderie and “can do” PSRP spirit.
