Wage gap between Orange Unified State Preschool teachers vs Elementary school teachers

Wage gap between Orange Unified State Preschool teachers vs Elementary school teachers
Why this petition matters
Did you know that childcare providers working in our preschool program often work 8 hour shifts, but with all the work that is involved with the program we are really working 10-12 hour shifts?
Did you know that these same workers have Bachelors or Masters degree as well in Education along with taking extra classes to obtain teaching certifications but are still underpaid? Starting Pay for a preschool teacher would be $35,000 year.
Do you believe that working families should have high-quality, early learning educational preschool programs available to provide care for their children?
It's time to support the work force behind the preschool programs and help these teachers make what they deserve. Take a stand today, by signing our petition and sharing with all your friends.
